Merge tag 'docs-7.1' of git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/docs/linux

Pull documentation updates from Jonathan Corbet:
"A busier cycle than I had expected for docs, including:

- Translations: some overdue updates to the Japanese translations,
Chinese translations for some of the Rust documentation, and the
beginnings of a Portuguese translation.

- New documents covering CPU isolation, managed interrupts, debugging
Python gbb scripts, and more.

- More tooling work from Mauro, reducing docs-build warnings, adding
self tests, improving man-page output, bringing in a proper C
tokenizer to replace (some of) the mess of kernel-doc regexes, and
more.

- Update and synchronize changes.rst and scripts/ver_linux, and put
both into alphabetical order.

... and a long list of documentation updates, typo fixes, and general
improvements"

docs: kdoc: better handle source when producing YAML output

The current logic was storing symbols source code on a list,
not linked to the actual KdocItem. While this works fine when
kernel-doc markups are OK, on places where there is a "/**"
without a valid kernel-doc markup, it ends that the 1:1 match
between source code and KdocItem doesn't happen, causing
problems to generate the YAML output.

Fix it by storing the source code directly into the KdocItem
structure.

This shouldn't affect performance or memory footprint, except
when --yaml option is used.

While here, add a __repr__() function for KdocItem, as it
helps debugging it.

Merge branch 'mauro' into docs-mw

This series comes after:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/cover.1773770483.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org/

It basically contains patches I submitted before on a 40+ patch series,
but were less relevant, plus a couple of other minor fixes:

- patch 1 improves one of the CTokenizer unit test, fixing some
potential issues on it;
- patches 2 and 3 contain some improvement/fixes for Sphinx
Python autodoc extension. They basically document c_lex.py;

- The remaining patches:
- create a new class for kernel-doc config;
- fix some internal representations of KdocItem;
- add unit tests for KernelDoc() parser class;
- add support to output KdocItem in YAML, which is a
machine-readable output for all documented kAPI.

None of the patches should affect man or html output.
