For Kernel 5.10, IMO the best is to apply this patch as-is, as any
other thing would need to be postponed, and we want 5.10 free of
doc warnings.

Yet, when I wrote this one, I almost took a different approach:
to implement something like @*group (or \*group) directives that
exists on doxygen:

	https://www.doxygen.nl/manual/grouping.html

If something like that gets added to kernel-doc syntax, then
one could do something like:

	/**
	 * DOC: some foo description
	 * @group foo
	 */
 
	/**
	 * foo1 - do some foo things 
	 * @group foo
	...
	 */

	/**
	 * foo2 - do some other foo things
	 * @group foo
	...
	 */

	/**
	 * bar - do bar things
	 * @group bar
	...
	 */


And then, at kernel-doc markup:

	FOO
	===

	.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_perf.c
		:group: foo


	BAR
	===
	.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_perf.c
		:group: bar


I suspect that something like that would be a lot easier to maintain.

Once having someone like that implemented, it should be easy to also
have something like this:

	OTHERS
	======
	.. kernel-doc:: drivers/gpu/drm/i915/i915_perf.c
		:export:
		:not-grouped:

in order to pick other functions that aren't grouped.

I suspect that implementing something like that at kernel-doc.pl
won't be hard.

Mauro
