[PATCH] docs: Add relevant kernel publications to list of books; LKP 2E

[Kaiwan N Billimoria]

Hi Carlos, Jon,
As the 2nd edition of my 'Linux Kernel Programming' book is recently
published (29 Feb 2024), this patch is to request it's addition to the
book list.
I've currently kept the 1st edition as well (in reverse chronological
order); if this isn't required, pl let me know..

Regards,
Kaiwan

Happy to add the book but ... surely the author of said book wants to
set a good example by sending a properly written patch?

- A changelog in the kernel style saying simply what is to be done and
  why

- Stick to the 80-character limit (we still really try to do that for
  text)

Thanks,

jon

Apologies! Wilco.. will send a v2 shortly.

Sure. It's just that checkpatch.pl didn't report it..
Still, as you correctly say, I shall stick to the 80-char limit!
Without any malice whatsoever :-) , I'd also like to point out that this limit
doesn't always seem to be adhered to in the current ver of this doc..

Thanks,
Kaiwan.
