a literal block within a kerneldoc comment would be corrupted in
processing. On the way, though, I got annoyed at the way I have to learn
how kernel-doc works from the beginning every time I tear into it.
As a result, seven of the following eight patches just get rid of some dead
code and reorganize the rest - mostly turning the 500-line process_file()
function into something a bit more rational. Sphinx output is unchanged
after these are applied. Then, at the end, there's a tweak to stop messing
with literal blocks.

doc-guide: kernel-doc: fix example for nested_foobar struct
There's a missing */ at the end of Kernel docs example.
Even adding it, it will still produce 3 warnings:
example:33: warning: Function parameter or member 'bar' not described in 'nested_foobar'
example:33: warning: Function parameter or member 'bar.st1' not described in 'nested_foobar'
example:33: warning: Function parameter or member 'bar.st2' not described in 'nested_foobar'
So, make the example more complete and add the missing end
of comment there.

docs: kernel-doc: Don't mangle literal code blocks in comments
It can be useful to put code snippets into kerneldoc comments; that can be
done with the "::" operator at the end of a line like this::
if (desperate)
run_in_circles();
The ".. code-block::" directive can also be used to this end. kernel-doc
currently fails to understand these literal blocks and applies its normal
markup to them, which is then treated as literal by sphinx. The result is
unsightly markup instead of a useful code snippet.
Apply a hack to the output code to recognize literal blocks and avoid
performing any special markup on them. It's ugly, but that means it fits
in well with the rest of the script.

kernel-doc is and how to use it.
I made the following changes:
- Moved the 'Including kernel-doc comments' section to the end of

how to integrate it.
- Moved the 'Recommendations' subsection to the top. We want people
to know what to document before telling them how to do it.
- Rewrite the 'Writing kernel-doc comments' section, integrating
the 'Recommendations' subsection and a paragraph from 'How to format
kernel-doc comments'.
- Remove the paragraph about the kernel-doc script; we're supposed to
be teaching people how to use punctuation to write pretty documentation,
not documenting the build tooling.
- Split the 'Parameters and member arguments' section into 'Function
parameters' and 'Members'. Structure members are not commonly

- Integrate the 'private:' and 'public:' tag descriptions into the

kconfig: remove const qualifier from sym_expand_string_value()
This function returns realloc'ed memory, so the returned pointer
must be passed to free() when done. So, 'const' qualifier is odd.
It is allowed to modify the expanded string.

We already have xmalloc(), xcalloc(). Add xrealloc() as well
