This was my line of thought as well, since the audience of
admin-guide/ is sysadmins and users. Namespaces are mostly relevant to
module authors and kernel developers. Currently, I don't think there
is an existing good place in Documentation/ for this topic :-/
I suppose kernel-hacking/ might be the closest fit, as Adam suggested.
