Subject: docs: kernel-doc: Get rid of xml_escape() and friends
X-Git-Tag: v4.19~1327^2~56^2~8
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=0bba924ce99aadf8dcd316b8bf8b98902925ea8a;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-rpi.git

docs: kernel-doc: Get rid of xml_escape() and friends

XML escaping is a worry that came with DocBook, which we no longer have any
dealings with.  So get rid of the useless xml_escape()/xml_unescape()
functions.  No change to the generated output.
