Why a Bourne-shell "for" loop? And why 192 instances of "a"? This commit adds a shell comment to present the answer to these mysteries. It also uses a series of factor-of-four Bourne-shell assignments to make it easy to see how many instances there are, replacing the earlier wall of 'a' characters.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
