The documentation claims that two sched groups must not overlap. This is
no longer true, as overlapping sched groups are used on NUMA systems.
This change has been introduced by commit e3589f6c81 and was
documented by an in-code comment in commit 35a566e6e8.

Mauro sez:
Patches 1 to 5 contain changes to the documentation toolset:
- The first 3 patches help to reduce a lot the number of reported
kernel-doc issues, by making the tool more smart.
- Patches 4 and 5 are meant to partially address the PDF
build, with now requires Sphinx version 2.4 or upper.
The remaining patches fix broken references detected by
this tool:
./scripts/documentation-file-ref-check
and address other random errors due to tags being mis-interpreted
or mis-used.
They are independent each other, but some may depend on
the kernel-doc improvements.
There are two ascii art drawings there. Use a block markup tag there
in order to get rid of those warnings:
./lib/bitmap.c:189: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.

./lib/bitmap.c:190: WARNING: Unexpected indentation.

It should be noticed that there's actually a syntax violation
right now, as something like:

will be handled as a definition for @src parameter, and not as
part of a diagram. So, we need to add something before it, in
order for this to be processed the way it should.

The Sphinx build system for PDF is too complex and generate
lots of ancillary files, including one PDF file for each
image.
So, at the end, the main latex dir has 156 pdf files, instead
of the 71 ones that would match each generated book. That's
confusing and it makes harder to identify when something didn't
work.
So, instead, let's move the final PDF output(s) to a separate
dir. This way, the latex/ dir will have the temporary and the
final *.tex files, while the final pdf files that built ok
will be under the pdf/ directory.

There are some docs that have nested tables. While this was
always part of the spec, only Sphinx version 2.4.x can
translate it to LaTeX.
In other words, if someone is using a Sphinx version < 2.4,
the LaTeX and PDF output won't work for some of the docs.
So, it seems that it is time to raise the bar again
for the recommented version.
The Sphinx check script is already smart enough to keep
working, with older versions, warning the users that
an upgrade is recommended (and explaining how):

Sphinx is very pedantic with respect to blank lines. Sometimes,
in order to make it to properly handle something, we need to
add a blank line. However, currently, any blank line inside a
kernel-doc comment like:
/*
* @foo: bar
*
* foobar
*
* some description
will be considered as if "foobar" was part of the description.
This patch changes kernel-doc behavior. After it, foobar will
be considered as part of the parameter text. The description
will only be considered as such if it starts with:
zero spaces after asterisk:
*foo
one space after asterisk:
* foo
or have a explicit Description section:

On a few places, it sometimes need to indicate a negation of a
parameter, like:
!@fshared
This pattern happens, for example, at:
kernel/futex.c
and it is perfectly valid. However, kernel-doc currently
transforms it into:
!**fshared**
This won't do what it would be expected.
Fortunately, fixing the script is a simple matter of storing
the "!" before "@" and adding it after the bold markup, like:
**!fshared**

The pattern @foo->bar() is valid, as it can be used by a
function pointer inside a struct passed as a parameter.
Right now, it causes a warning:
./drivers/firewire/core-transaction.c:606: WARNING: Inline strong start-string without end-string.
In this specific case, the kernel-doc markup is:
/**
* fw_core_remove_address_handler() - unregister an address handler
* @handler: callback
*
* To be called in process context.
*
* When fw_core_remove_address_handler() returns, @handler->callback() is
* guaranteed to not run on any CPU anymore.

With seems valid on my eyes. So, instead of trying to hack
the kernel-doc markup, let's teach it about how to handle
such things. This should likely remove lots of other similar
warnings as well.
