[PATCH bpf-next 1/2] bpf, docs: Fix link to netdev-FAQ target

From: David Vernet
Date: Thu Mar 02 2023 - 13:39:26 EST


The BPF devel Q&A documentation page makes frequent reference to the
netdev-QA page via the netdev-FAQ rst link. This link is currently
broken, as is evidenced by the build output when making BPF docs:

./Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst:150: WARNING: undefined label: 'netdev-faq'
./Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst:206: WARNING: undefined label: 'netdev-faq'
./Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst:231: WARNING: undefined label: 'netdev-faq'
./Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst:396: WARNING: undefined label: 'netdev-faq'
./Documentation/bpf/bpf_devel_QA.rst:412: WARNING: undefined label: 'netdev-faq'

Fix the links to point to the actual netdev-faq page.
