[PATCH 1/2] docs: stable-kernel-rules: provide example of specifying target series

[Shung-Hsi Yu <shung-hsi.yu@suse.com>]

Provide a concrete example of how to specify what stable series should
be targeted for change inclusion. Looking around on the stable mailing
list this seems like a common practice already, so let's mention that in
the documentation as well (but worded so it is not interpreted as the
only way to do so).
