Mauro Carvalho Chehab ed8348e23a scripts: kernel-doc: don't mangle with parameter list
While kernel-doc needs to parse parameters in order to
identify its name, it shouldn't be touching the type,
as parsing it is very difficult, and errors happen.

One current error is when parsing this parameter:

	const u32 (*tab)[256]

Found at ./lib/crc32.c, on this function:

	u32 __pure crc32_be_generic (u32 crc, unsigned char const *p, size_t len, const u32 (*tab)[256], u32 polynomial);

The current logic mangles it, producing this output:

	const u32 ( *tab

That's something that it is not recognizeable.

So, instead, let's push the argument as-is, and use it
when printing the function prototype and when describing
each argument.

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.
