[PATCH 0/8] dt: doc build improvements and kerneldoc addition

[Rob Herring]

This series reorganizes the DT documentation and adds the DT API
kerneldoc to the documentation build.

It's based on the current DT for-next branch which has a series of
kerneldoc fixes from Lee Jones.

[PATCH 2/8] docs: dt: writing-schema: Remove spurious indentation

[PATCH 4/8] docs: dt: Make 'Devicetree' wording more consistent

[Rob Herring]

There's a variety of ways 'Devicetree' has been written. This is most
evident in the documentation build contents where we have 'Device Tree',
'DeviceTree', etc. The DT spec has somewhat standardized on
'Devicetree', so let's use that.

[PATCH 5/8] docs: dt: Group DT docs into relevant sub-sections

[Rob Herring]

The DT docs are currently all just lumped together in the doc build.
Let's organize the documents by kernel specifics, overlays and bindings.

As writing-schema.rst is about bindings, let's move it to the bindings
directory.

[PATCH 6/8] of: Fix kerneldoc output formatting

[Rob Herring]

The indentation of the kerneldoc comments affects the output formatting.
Leading tabs in particular don't work, and sections need to be indented
under the section header.

The example snippets for DT source in the comments still have some
formatting issues, but there doesn't seem to be any way to do multi-line
literal blocks in kerneldoc.

Cc: Frank Rowand <frowand.list@gmail.com>
Cc: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab@kernel.org>
Signed-off-by: Rob Herring <robh@kernel.org>
---

Note the dts examples still cause warnings. I couldn't find any way to 
do a literal block and fix them. Minimally, there needs to be a way to 
escape ':' and not create sections:

You can do something like this:

/**
 * of_parse_phandle_with_args() - Find a node pointed by phandle in a list
 * @np:		pointer to a device tree node containing a list
 * @list_name:	property name that contains a list
 * @cells_name:	property name that specifies phandles' arguments count
 * @index:	index of a phandle to parse out
 * @out_args:	optional pointer to output arguments structure (will be filled)
 *
 * This function is useful to parse lists of phandles and their arguments.
 * Returns 0 on success and fills out_args, on error returns appropriate
 * errno value.
 *
 * Caller is responsible to call of_node_put() on the returned out_args->np
 * pointer.
 *
 * For example::
 *
 *	phandle1: node1 {
 *		#list-cells = <2>;
 *	};
 *
 *	phandle2: node2 {
 *		#list-cells = <1>;
 *	};
 *
 *	node3 {
 *		list = <&phandle1 1 2 &phandle2 3>;
 *	};
 *
 * To get a device_node of the ``node2`` node you may call this:
 * of_parse_phandle_with_args(node3, "list", "#list-cells", 1, &args);
 */


The problem is that using just:

/**
 ...
 * Example::
 ...

Would make confusion with an existing regex at kernel-doc script that
parses a regex similar to this:

	\*\s+(\w+):

Into:
	**$1**

So, using two words fix the issue.

Granted, this is something that could be improved at kernel-doc with
something like (untested):

I'll run some tests if the above works and submit a separate patch

[PATCH 7/8] of: Add missing 'Return' section in kerneldoc comments

[Rob Herring]

Many of the DT kerneldoc comments are lacking a 'Return' section. Let's
add the section in cases we have a description of return values. There's
still some cases where the return values are not documented.
