Mauro Carvalho Chehab 3259081991 MAINTAINERS & files: Canonize the e-mails I use at files
From now on, I'll start using my @kernel.org as my development e-mail.

As such, let's remove the entries that point to the old
mchehab@s-opensource.com at MAINTAINERS file.

For the files written with a copyright with mchehab@s-opensource,
let's keep Samsung on their names, using mchehab+samsung@kernel.org,
in order to keep pointing to my employer, with sponsors the work.

For the files written before I join Samsung (on July, 4 2013),
let's just use mchehab@kernel.org.

For bug reports, we can simply point to just kernel.org, as
this will reach my mchehab+samsung inbox anyway.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 3651d452fd 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.

Matthew Wilcox 46347502b0 Restructure kernel-doc.rst
I found the layout confusing with multiple introductions to what
kernel-doc is and how to use it.

I made the following changes:
 - Moved the 'Including kernel-doc comments' section to the end of
   the document -- we should explain what it *is* before we explain
   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
   referred to as arguments.
 - Integrate the 'private:' and 'public:' tag descriptions into the
   'Members' section.
 - Move the 'In-line member documentation comments' subsection up to be
   with the 'Members' section.

Mauro Carvalho Chehab 8ad7216316 scripts: kernel-doc: parse next structs/unions
There are several places within the Kernel tree with nested
structs/unions, like this one:

  struct ingenic_cgu_clk_info {
    const char *name;
    enum {
      CGU_CLK_NONE = 0,
      CGU_CLK_EXT = BIT(0),
      CGU_CLK_PLL = BIT(1),
      CGU_CLK_GATE = BIT(2),
      CGU_CLK_MUX = BIT(3),
      CGU_CLK_MUX_GLITCHFREE = BIT(4),
      CGU_CLK_DIV = BIT(5),
      CGU_CLK_FIXDIV = BIT(6),
      CGU_CLK_CUSTOM = BIT(7),
    } type;
    int parents[4];
    union {
      struct ingenic_cgu_pll_info pll;
      struct {
        struct ingenic_cgu_gate_info gate;
        struct ingenic_cgu_mux_info mux;
        struct ingenic_cgu_div_info div;
        struct ingenic_cgu_fixdiv_info fixdiv;
      };
      struct ingenic_cgu_custom_info custom;
    };
  };

Currently, such struct is documented as:

	**Definition**

	::
	struct ingenic_cgu_clk_info {
	    const char * name;
	};

	**Members**

	``name``
	  name of the clock

With is obvioulsy wrong. It also generates an error:
	drivers/clk/ingenic/cgu.h:169: warning: No description found for parameter 'enum'

However, there's nothing wrong with this kernel-doc markup: everything
is documented there.

It makes sense to document all fields there. So, add a
way for the core to parse those structs.

With this patch, all documented fields will properly generate
documentation.

Markus Heiser db6ccf23e8 docs-rst: automatically convert Graphviz and SVG images
This patch brings scalable figure, image handling and a concept to
embed *render* markups:

* DOT (http://www.graphviz.org)
* SVG

For image handling use the 'image' replacement::

    .. kernel-image::  svg_image.svg
       :alt:    simple SVG image

For figure handling use the 'figure' replacement::

    .. kernel-figure::  svg_image.svg
       :alt:    simple SVG image

       SVG image example

Embed *render* markups (or languages) like Graphviz's **DOT** is
provided by the *render* directive.::

  .. kernel-render:: DOT
     :alt: foobar digraph
     :caption: Embedded **DOT** (Graphviz) code.

     digraph foo {
      "bar" -> "baz";
     }

The *render* directive is a concept to integrate *render* markups and
languages, yet supported markups:

* DOT: render embedded Graphviz's **DOT**
* SVG: render embedded Scalable Vector Graphics (**SVG**)

Mauro Carvalho Chehab c339665666 docs-rst: parse-headers.pl: cleanup the documentation
Keeping both rst and in-file documentation in sync can be harsh.

So, simplify the script's internal documntation to a bare minimum,
and add a mention to the ReST file with its full documentation.

This way, a quick help is still available at the command line,
while the complete one is maintained at the ReST format.

As we won't be using pad2rst anymore, do a cleanup at the ReST
file.
