[PATCH] Documentation: Replace more lkml.org links with lore

[Kees Cook]

As started by commit 05a5f51ca566 ("Documentation: Replace lkml.org
links with lore"), replace a few more scattered lkml.org links with
lore to better use a single source that's more likely to stay available
long-term.

The subject title seems odd as the modified files aren't
in the Documentation/ path, but the CREDIT change seems fine.

The Makefile.include bit maybe should be modified as
gcc 4.8 is no longer supported.
