Bug#924581: lintian: license-problem-gfdl-invariants false positive in src:linux's fdl-appendix.rst



Hi Ben,

As it happens, Lintian already strips LaTeX markup before doing this
check (or at least something is ringing a bell in my memory right
now...) so doing it for .rst too is probably both easy and practical.

Nod, had grokked that. :)
