The problem is those literal blocks.  The easiest fix will be to just use
the double-colon notation to indicate a literal block, so the paragraph
above would end with "...start your code with::".  Note that there's a few
of them to fix.

Would something like the below work? I think I fixed the other places with
issues and for consistency, replaced the ".. code-block:: c" with just "::"
usage throughout the file.

That will work.  It will also have the effect of removing C syntax
highlighting from the formatted output; that is fine with me, but others
are more attached to it.

Is there a way to set a default highlighting to be C syntax?

Otherwise I'll just put it back and add the code-block statements back in,
even though there are those that will complain about the added mark up ;-)

[PATCH] ftrace/documentation: Fix RST C code blocks

[Steven Rostedt]

From: "Steven Rostedt (VMware)" <rostedt@goodmis.org>

Some C code in the ftrace-users.rst document is missing RST C block
annotation, which has to be added.

The changes that created the warning in the first place are in the ftrace
tree, right?  So it seems that the fix should be there as well; it won't
apply to the docs tree.

Bah, I forgot the report was on linux-next and not mainline.

OK, I'll take it, but can you give an ack?
