I got completely rid of the extra re. Just parse a non-empty content
line following the declaration purpose immediately as continuation.
It survives make htmldocs, the scsi_exit_devinfo() doc looks okay and
for stuff that had continuation lines before, it does what's expected
- e.g. for the doc of kernel/sched.c::init_sd_power_savings_stats().
It behaves differently for broken docs
(mm/page_alloc.c::calculate_zone_inactive_ratio e.g.), but that
shouldn't matter.
I didn't find any other misbehaviour when checking random samples.

Subject: kernel-doc: allow multi-line declaration purpose descriptions
Allow the short description after symbol name and dash in a kernel-doc
comment to span multiple lines, e.g. like this:
/**
* unmap_mapping_range - unmap the portion of all mmaps in the
* specified address_space corresponding to the specified
* page range in the underlying file.
* @mapping: the address space containing mmaps to be unmapped.
* ...
*/
The short description ends with a parameter description, an empty line
or the end of the comment block.
