36bc683dde kernel-doc: rename the kernel-doc directive 'functions' to 'identifiers'
The 'functions' directive is not only for functions, but also works for
structs/unions. So the name is misleading. This patch renames it to
'identifiers', which specific the functions/types to be included in
documentation. We keep the old name as an alias of the new one before
all documentation are updated.

2404dad1f6 doc: Cope with the deprecation of AutoReporter
AutoReporter is going away; recent versions of sphinx emit a warning like:

  Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:125:
      RemovedInSphinx20Warning: AutodocReporter is now deprecated.
      Use sphinx.util.docutils.switch_source_input() instead.

Make the switch.  But switch_source_input() only showed up in 1.7, so we
have to do ugly version checks to keep things working in older versions.

096ea522e8 doc: Cope with Sphinx logging deprecations
Recent versions of sphinx will emit messages like:

  Documentation/sphinx/kerneldoc.py:103:
     RemovedInSphinx20Warning: app.warning() is now deprecated.
     Use sphinx.util.logging instead.

Switch to sphinx.util.logging to make this unsightly message go away.
Alas, that interface was only added in version 1.6, so we have to add a
version check to keep things working with older sphinxes.

f2e8603604 Documentation/sphinx: allow "functions" with no parameters
When kernel-doc:: specified in .rst document without explicit directives,
it outputs both comment and DOC: sections. If a DOC: section was explicitly
included in the same document it will be duplicated. For example, the
output generated for Documentation/core-api/idr.rst [1] has "IDA
description" in the "IDA usage" section and in the middle of the API
reference.

This patch enables using "functions" directive without parameters to output
all the documentation excluding DOC: sections.

ff690eeed8 Documentation/sphinx: Fix Directive import error
Sphinx 1.7 removed sphinx.util.compat.Directive so people
who have upgraded cannot build the documentation.  Switch to
docutils.parsers.rst.Directive which has been available since
docutils 0.5 released in 2009.

86c0f046a8 Documentation/sphinx: fix kernel-doc decode for non-utf-8 locale
On python3, Popen() universal_newlines=True converts the subprocess
stdout to unicode text using a codec based on user preferences. Given
LANG indicating ascii and utf-8 stdout from the subprocess, you'd get:

WARNING: kernel-doc '../scripts/kernel-doc -rst -enable-lineno
../drivers/media/dvb-core/demux.h' processing failed with: 'ascii' codec can't
decode byte 0xe2 in position 6368: ordinal not in range(128)

Fix this by dropping universal_newlines=True and replacing the implicit
LANG specific decode with an explicit utf-8 decode. This also gets rid
of the annoying conditional code for python 2 vs. 3.

58af04dff7 Documentation/sphinx: rename kernel-doc.py to kerneldoc.py
Python module names should not have hyphens per [PEP 8]. Drop the hyphen
from kernel-doc.py. The extension directive remains unchanged.
