Documentation/kernel-docs.txt: Add 4 paper/book references

Background/Reasoning:

Books:
------
 * Linux Kernel Networking by Rami Rosen
   While some parts are quite short and could be
   more carefully explained it's still a good recomendation
   for understanding linux kernel networking, (IMHO)

* Linux Treiber entwickeln:
  It sure is a drawback that this is a german book.
  But it's quite recent, well structured and there are also
  other non-english (spanish) books/papers in this list.

Papers:
-------

  * On Submitting kernel Patches
    Contains 2 case studies of bigger patch sets and how (or how not)
    they were merged. I found it helpful

  * Tracing the Way of Data in a TCP Connection through the Linux Kernel
    Since this was written by me this inclusion may be a bit biased :p
    Neitherless I think this gives a good introduction on
    understanding/exploring linux internals using ftrace and an overview
    of Linux TCP internals.

there are and how likley they get merged.

[...]. This paper examines some common problems for
submitting larger changes and some strategies to avoid problems.
* Title: **Tracing the Way of Data in a TCP Connection through the Linux Kernel**
:Author: Richard Sailer
:URL: https://archive.org/details/linux_kernel_data_flow_short_paper
:Keywords: Linux Kernel Networking, TCP, tracing, ftrace
:Description: A seminar paper explaining ftrace and how to use it for
understanding linux kernel internals,
illustrated at tracing the way of a TCP packet through the kernel.
:Abstract: *This short paper outlines the usage of ftrace a tracing framework
as a tool to understand a running Linux system.
Having obtained a trace-log a kernel hacker can read and understand
source code more determined and with context.
In a detailed example this approach is demonstrated in tracing
and the way of data in a TCP Connection through the kernel.
Finally this trace-log is used as base for more a exact conceptual
exploration and description of the Linux TCP/IP implementation.*
