Rationale: Reduces attack surface on kernel devs opening the links for MITM as HTTPS traffic is much harder to manipulate. Deterministic algorithm: For each file: For each line: If doesn't contain `\bxmlns\b`: For each link, `\bhttp://[^# \t\r\n]*(?:\w|/)`: If both the HTTP and HTTPS versions return 200 OK and serve the same content: Replace HTTP with HTTPS.

This is a first pass at updating the basic documentation on Linux Security Modules (LSM), which is frighteningly out of date. Remove untrue statements about the LSM framework.

During recent patch discussion [1] it became apparent that the "other_node" definition in the numastat documentation has always been different from actual implementation. It was also noted that the stats can be innacurate on systems with memoryless nodes. This patch corrects the other_node definition (with minor tweaks to two more definitions), adds a note about memoryless nodes and also two introductory paragraphs to the numastat documentation.
