Hi Greg,
Arch Linux recently enabled building the kernel documentation in their
PKGBUILD, which turned my normally peaceful build into a spamfest of
unescaped braces warnings from Perl.
These are fixed upstream with the following two patches:
701b3a3c0ac4 ("PATCH scripts/kernel-doc")
673bb2dfc364 ("scripts/kernel-doc: Escape all literal braces in regexes")
Could they please be applied to 4.18? They should be clean cherry-picks.
Thanks!
Nathan

I hadn't thought of those as -stable fodder, but I can see how that would
be helpful. Certainly I have no objection to including them.
