Subject: [RFC PATCH v1 0/3] docs: stable-kernel-rules: add delayed backporting option and a few tweaks

This is a RFC and a bit rough for now. I only set down to create the
first of the three patches. But while doing so I noticed a few things
that seemed odd for me with my background on writing and editing texts.
So I just quickly performed a few additional changes to fix those to see
if the stable team would appreciate them, as this document is clearly
their domain.

If those changes or even the initial patch are not welcomed, I'll simply
drop them. I'd totally understand this, as texts like these are delicate
and it's easy to accidentlly change the intent or the meaning while
adjusting things in good faith.

At the same time I might be willing to do a few more changes, if people
like the direction this takes and want a bit more fine tuning.
