Just one tiny little problem ... when you weren't looking, Mauro snuck
in and replaced scripts/kernel-doc with a shiny new Python
implementation.  So that part of the patch won't apply to docs-next; if
you apply it somewhere else, the change will get lost.

I figured we were going to run into at least one of these ... sorry ...
