If you go to https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/ and type a symbol
into the search box on the left, you'll get directed to the right place
(if it exists). For James's system_state example, it makes it clear
that there's only one reference - in the coding-style document, of all
places...

I've never looked into that index to see how hard it would be to access
without a browser.
