Subject: [PATCH v3 30/30] docs: xforms_lists.py: use CFuntion to handle all function macros
The new CFunction class handles better macros, as it works the same
way C compilers do, handling delimiters tha right way.
This allows removing complex regular expressions, placing instead
just a simple one with the name(s) of the functions to be replaced.
Doing a before/after check using "kernel-doc -man ." shows only
cosmetic changes (whitespaces, mostly).
