Yes, that's what I was missing.  Also, the log message says

  * lisp/help-fns.el (describe-keymap): New command to show key bindings
  for a given keymap.  (Bug#30660)
  * doc/emacs/help.texi (Misc Help): Document it.

but I see no patch part that describes describe-keymap in help.texi...

I meant to have a reference to the description of describe-keymap.
What to do with describe-bindings is a separate issue.  I'm okay with
removing it as well, leaving its only description in the user manual,
and having a cross-reference to that in the ELisp manual.

Thanks.
