missing rationale / mission statement about kdbus HOT 5 CLOSED

rational / mission statement is the 000 message when posted to the linux-kernel mailing list, see the email posts there if you are curious about it.. Doesn't need to be here in this repo.

I believe @gregkh refers to this post which I found with a simple Google search...

First: thanks for the link :)

I know this is a kind of personal view, but I prefer to get both the "what" as well as the "why" when visiting any project's github (or google code if you insist) page ;)

Amending the README with a "Why we do this: [link]" would be 100% sufficient.

This repo is not to try to sell you on the project, to get you to use it, or anything else other than a nice place to be able to pull the code from, if you want to use it, or to provide any type of marketing materials for the feature. Heck, it's not even the main repo for it, it's always out of date by a week or so. I wouldn't recommend using this repo for anything, stick to the patches that are posted to the linux-kernel mailing list, that's the canonical version to use.
