[PATCH, resend] kerneldoc: Convert error messages to GNU error message format

Bart Van Assche
2015-04-08T07:45:45Z

Editors like emacs and vi recognize a number of error message
formats. The format used by the kerneldoc tool is not recognized
by emacs. Change the kerneldoc error message format to the GNU
style such that the emacs prev-error and next-error commands can
be used to navigate through kerneldoc error messages. For more
information about the GNU error message format, see also
https://www.gnu.org/prep/standards/html_node/Errors.html.

This patch has been generated via the following sed command:

sed -i.orig 's/Error(\${file}:\$.):/\${file}:\$.: error:/g;s/Warning(\${file}:\$.):/\${file}:\$.: warning:/g;s/Warning(\${file}):/\${file}:1: warning:/g;s/Info(\${file}:\$.):/\${file}:\$.: info:/g' scripts/kernel-doc
