doc-rst: linux_tv: supress lots of warnings The c language parser checks if there are duplicated object definitions. That causes lots of warnings like: WARNING: duplicate C object description of ioctl Let's remove those by telling Sphinx that the language for those objects are c++. The look of the descriptions will be close, and the warnings will be gone. Please notice that we had to keep a few of them as C, as the c++ parser seems to be broken when it finds an enum. Yet, this reduced from 219 warnings to 143, with is a good thing. Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@s-opensource.com> 2016-07-02 12:49:16 +00:00			`.. cpp:function:: int close( int fd )`
