kernel-doc doesn't handle bitfields that are specified with symbolic
name, e.g. u32 cs_index_mask : SPI_CS_CNT_MAX
This results in the following warnings when running `make htmldocs`:
include/linux/spi/spi.h:246: warning: Function parameter or struct member 'cs_index_mask:SPI_CS_CNT_MAX' not described in 'spi_device'
include/linux/spi/spi.h:246: warning: Excess struct member 'cs_index_mask' description in 'spi_device'
Update the regexp for bitfields to accept all word chars, not just
digits.

In kernel-doc comments, unary operator * collides with Sphinx/
docutil's markdown for emphasizing.
This resulted in additional warnings from "make htmldocs":
WARNING: Inline emphasis start-string without end-string.
, as reported recently [1].
Those have been worked around either by escaping * (like \*param) or by
using inline-literal form of ``*param``, both of which are specific
to Sphinx/docutils.
Such workarounds are against the kenrel-doc's ideal and should better
be avoided.
Instead, add "*" to the list of unary operators kernel-doc recognizes
and make the form of *@param available in kernel-doc comments.

Set 'softtabstop' to 4 spaces, which will hopefully help keep the
indentation in this file consistent going forwards.
This mirrors the modeline in scripts such as recordmcount.pl, ktest.pl,
and others.
Emacs seems to use 4 spaces to indent by default, so it doesn't require
anything special here.

This file is using an ungodly mixture of 4 spaces, 2-wide tabs, 4-wide
tabs, _and_ 8-wide tabs, making it really hard to find good editor
settings for working with this file.
Bite the bullet and reindent it by hand. I tried using both perltidy
and vim, but neither of them were up to the task without changing too
much or getting confused about what they were supposed to be doing.
I did change a few instances of
}
else
into
} else
(and same for elsif); the file is again written using both styles, and
I left functions which already seemed self-consistent alone.
You can verify that this commit only changes whitespace using e.g.:
git diff --ignore-all-space --word-diff
or to see (only) the instances where newlines were added/removed:
git diff --ignore-all-space
You can also see the delta from what perltidy would have wanted to
do to this file (when asked to only indent it), which isn't that much
in the end:
perltidy -io -fnl scripts/kernel-doc
git diff --no-index scripts/kernel-doc{,.tdy}

Pull documentation update from Jonathan Corbet:
"Another moderately busy cycle for documentation, including:
- The minimum Sphinx requirement has been raised to 2.4.4, following
a warning that was added in 6.2
- Some reworking of the Documentation/process front page to,
hopefully, make it more useful
- Various kernel-doc tweaks to, for example, make it deal properly
with __counted_by annotations
- We have also restored a warning for documentation of nonexistent
structure members that disappeared a while back. That had the
delightful consequence of adding some 600 warnings to the docs
build. A sustained effort by Randy, Vegard, and myself has
addressed almost all of those, bringing the documentation back into
sync with the code. The fixes are going through the appropriate
maintainer trees
- Various improvements to the HTML rendered docs, including automatic
links to Git revisions and a nice new pulldown to make translations
easy to access
- Speaking of translations, more of those for Spanish and Chinese
... plus the usual stream of documentation updates and typo fixes"

kernel-doc appeared to ignore __counted_by, but appearances can be
deceiving; it caused member names to not be recognized, which manifested as
a number of spurious "Excess struct member" warnings. Filter that
attribute out and reduce the warning onslaught slightly.
Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
The warning for Excess struct or union member description was
removed when the $nested parameter of check_sections() was removed.
This causes some kernel-doc notation warnings to be missed.
Recently the kernel test robot somehow reported an Excess member. The
code in kernel-doc has not issued that warning since kernel v4.16, so I
don't know how the robot did it. (See the Link for the report.)
drivers/net/wireless/intel/iwlwifi/fw/dbg.c:86: warning: Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'trans_len' description in 'iwl_fw_dump_ptrs'
I patched that warning away even though I could not reproduce the
warning from kernel-doc. The warning should be issued for extraneous
struct member or union member description, so restore it.

Set up build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes of
organized structs.
Warning includes:
1) whether all variables are still in the same cache group
2) whether all the cache groups have the sum of the members size (in the
maximum condition, including all members defined in configs)
The __cache_group* variables are ignored in kernel-doc check in the
various header files they appear in to enforce the cache groups.

Swarup reported a "make htmldocs" warning:
Variable length lookbehind is experimental in regex;
marked by <-- HERE in m/(?<=^|\s)-Werror(?=$|\s)
<-- HERE / at ./scripts/kernel-doc line 188.
Akira managed to reproduce it by perl v5.34.0.
On second thought, it is not necessary to have the complicated
"lookahead and lookbehind" things, and the regex can be simplified.
Generally, the kernel-doc warnings should be considered as errors only
when "-Werror" flag is set in KCFLAGS, but not when
"-Werror=<diagnostic-type>" is set, which means there needs to be a
space or start of string before "-Werror", and a space or end of string
after "-Werror".
The following cases have been tested to work as expected:
* kernel-doc warnings are considered as errors:
$ KCFLAGS="-Werror" make W=1
$ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror" make W=1
$ KCFLAGS="-Werror -Wundef" make W=1
$ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror -Wundef" make W=1
* kernel-doc warnings remain as warnings:
$ KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type" make W=1
$ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror=return-type" make W=1
$ KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type -Wundef" make W=1
$ KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror=return-type -Wundef" make W=1
The "Variable length lookbehind is experimental in regex" warning is
also resolved by this patch.

>From the git history, commit 2c12c8103d ("scripts/kernel-doc:
optionally treat warnings as errors") introduces a new command-line
option to make kernel-doc warnings into errors. It can also read the
KCFLAGS environment variable to decide whether to turn this option on,
but the regex used for matching may not be accurate enough. It can match
both "-Werror" and "-Werror=<diagnostic-type>", so the option is turned
on by mistake in the latter case.
Fix this by strictly matching the flag "-Werror": there must be a space
or start of string in the front, and a space or end of string at the
end. This can handle all the following cases correctly:
KCFLAGS="-Werror" make W=1 [MATCH]
KCFLAGS="-Werror=return-type" make W=1 [NO MATCH]
KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror -Wundef" make W=1 [MATCH]
KCFLAGS="-Wcomment -Werror=return-type -Wundef" make W=1 [NO MATCH]
