Currently, the kerneldoc Sphinx plugin doesn't honour the
--enable-werror configure option, so its warnings are never fatal.
This is because although we do pass sphinx-build the -W switch, the
warnings from kerneldoc are produced by the scripts/kernel-doc script
directly and don't go through Sphinx's "emit a warning" function.
When --enable-werror is in effect, pass sphinx-build an extra
argument -Dkerneldoc_werror=1. The kerneldoc plugin can then use
this to determine whether it should be passing the kernel-doc script
-Werror.
We do this because there is no documented mechanism for
a Sphinx plugin to determine whether sphinx-build was
passed -W or not; if one is provided then we can switch to
that at a later date:

This reverts commit fd68a72875cf318f4310726f842139119c5f45d5. We're
done with the update of kernel-doc and we can restore kernel-doc's
functionality.

When kernel-doc is called via kerneldoc.py, there's no need to
auto-detect the Sphinx version, as the Sphinx module already
knows it. So, add an optional parameter to allow changing the
Sphinx dialect.
As kernel-doc can also be manually called, keep the auto-detection
logic if the parameter was not specified. On such case, emit
a warning if sphinx-build can't be found at PATH.
I ended using a suggestion from Joe for using a more readable
regex, instead of using a complex one with a hidden group like:
m/^(\d+)\.(\d+)(?:\.?(\d+)?)/
in order to get the optional <patch> argument.

Preserve bisectability while we update scripts/kernel-doc from Linux.
Without this patch, building with Sphinx 3 would break while we
revert our own Sphinx 3 support and replace it with Linux's.

The kernel-doc Sphinx plugin and associated script currently emit
'c:type' directives for "struct foo" documentation.
Sphinx 3.0 warns about this:
/home/petmay01/linaro/qemu-from-laptop/qemu/docs/../include/exec/memory.h:3: WARNING: Type must be either just a name or a typedef-like declaration.
If just a name:
Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name, got keyword: struct [error at 6]
struct MemoryListener
------^
If typedef-like declaration:
Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name. [error at 21]
struct MemoryListener
---------------------^
because it wants us to use the new-in-3.0 'c:struct' instead.
Plumb the Sphinx version through to the kernel-doc script
and use it to select 'c:struct' for newer versions than 3.0.

Import Linux's kernel-doc script as of commit 15e2544ed38a1e, as well
as the Sphinx extension to call kernel-doc according to the arguments
and parameters given to a reStructuredText directive.
The kernel-doc extension accepts a filename, which is relative to
the QEMU source tree root. The extension also notifies Sphinx about the
document dependency on the file, causing the document to be rebuilt when
the file has been changed.
