[PATCH v3 2/3] code-of-conduct: Strip the enforcement paragraph pending community discussion

[James Bottomley]

Significant concern has been expressed about the responsibilities outlined in
the enforcement clause of the new code of conduct.  Since there is concern
that this becomes binding on the release of the 4.19 kernel, strip the
enforcement clauses to give the community time to consider and debate how this
should be handled.

Note, this patch is expected to be the starting point for a discussion not the
end point, so there is an expectation that an Enforcement section will be
added again to our code of conduct once we have sufficient community consensus
on what it should say.
