checkpatch: correct check for kernel parameters doc
Adding a new kernel parameter with documentation makes checkpatch complain
__setup appears un-documented -- check Documentation/admin-guide/kernel-parameters.rst
The list of kernel parameters has moved to a separate txt file, but
checkpatch has not been updated for this.
Make checkpatch.pl look for the documentation for new kernel parameters
in kernel-parameters.txt instead of kernel-parameters.rst.
Fixes: e52347bd66f6 ("Documentation/admin-guide: split the kernel parameter list to a separate file")
