Refresh the struct dev_pm_ops kerneldoc comment, so that it looks
better and is more readable after processing by Sphinx, and drop
the kerneldoc marker from a few other comments ("PM_EVENT_ messages"
and a couple of enum types declarations) which are not proper
kerneldoc and generally confuse Sphinx.
Also change the comment describing struct dev_pm_domain into

Make targets that don't depend on Sphinx work without warnings about
missing Sphinx. 'make cleandocs' will work without Sphinx just fine, and
the targets that are no-ops for Sphinx should just be skipped. Move them

Use PYTHONDONTWRITEBYTECODE=1 to prevent python from creating .pyc files
in the source tree. Python 3.2 has a __pycache__ scheme [1], but before
that the only alternative seems to be to copy the source files to the
build tree to ensure the .pyc files are created there too. Just prevent
.pyc file generation for simplicity.
Considering the small amount of python code to compile (assuming sphinx
itself has .pyc around), the impact on build is neglible.

Convert deviceiobook.tmpl to RST and incorporate it into the driver API
manual.
Like the rest of our documentation, this one could use some work. There's
no mention of ioremap() and friends, no mention of io_read*() and friends.
But we have nice documentation for all those folks writing new drivers that
do port I/O :).
The :c:func: notation has been left off of all the read*/write* functions.
There's no kerneldoc comments for them anyway, so those links will never be
live, and writing a bunch of repetitive "read a byte from I/O memory"
comments lacks appeal.

$type_struct_full and friends are only used by the restructuredText
backend, because it needs to separate enum/struct/typedef/union from
the name of the type. However, $type_struct is *also* used by the rST
backend. This is confusing.
This patch replaces $type_struct's use in the rST backend with a new
$type_fallback; it modifies $type_struct so that it can be used in the
rST backend; and creates regular expressions like $type_struct
for enum/typedef/union, for use in all backends.
Note that, compared to $type_*_full, in the new regexes $1 includes both
the "kind" and the name (before, $1 was pretty much a constant).

Note that, in order to produce the correct Docbook markup, the "." or "->"
must be separated from the member name in the regex's captured fields. For
consistency, this change is applied to $type_member and $type_member_func
too, not just to $type_member_xml.
List mode only prints the struct name, to avoid any undesired change in

An inline function can have an attribute, as in include/linux/log2.h,
and kernel-doc handles this already for simple cases. However,
some attributes have arguments (e.g. the "target" attribute).
Handle those too.
Furthermore, attributes could be at the beginning of a function
declaration, before the return type. To correctly handle this case,
you need to strip spaces after the attributes; otherwise, dump_function
is left confused.

I am getting the following warning when I build kernel 4.9-git on my
PowerBook G4 with a 32-bit PPC processor:
AS arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.o
arch/powerpc/kernel/misc_32.S:299:7: warning: "CONFIG_FSL_BOOKE" is not defined [-Wundef]
This problem is evident after commit 989cea5c14be ("kbuild: prevent
lib-ksyms.o rebuilds"); however, this change in kbuild only exposes an
error that has been in the code since 2005 when this source file was
created. That was with commit 9994a33865f4 ("powerpc: Introduce
entry_{32,64}.S, misc_{32,64}.S, systbl.S").
The offending line does not make a lot of sense. This error does not
seem to cause any errors in the executable, thus I am not recommending
that it be applied to any stable versions.
Thanks to Nicholas Piggin for suggesting this solution.

The timer type simplifications caused a new gcc warning:
drivers/base/power/domain.c: In function ‘genpd_runtime_suspend’:
drivers/base/power/domain.c:562:14: warning: ‘time_start’ may be used uninitialized in this function [-Wmaybe-uninitialized]
elapsed_ns = ktime_to_ns(ktime_sub(ktime_get(), time_start));
despite the actual use of "time_start" not having changed in any way.
It appears that simply changing the type of ktime_t from a union to a
plain scalar type made gcc check the use.
The variable wasn't actually used uninitialized, but gcc apparently
failed to notice that the conditional around the use was exactly the
same as the conditional around the initialization of that variable.
Add an unnecessary initialization just to shut up the compiler.

That leaves the odd union access around for no reason. Clean it up.

Add a new page flag, PageWaiters, to indicate the page waitqueue has
tasks waiting. This can be tested rather than testing waitqueue_active
which requires another cacheline load.
This bit is always set when the page has tasks on page_waitqueue(page),
and is set and cleared under the waitqueue lock. It may be set when
there are no tasks on the waitqueue, which will cause a harmless extra
wakeup check that will clears the bit.
The generic bit-waitqueue infrastructure is no longer used for pages.
Instead, waitqueues are used directly with a custom key type. The
generic code was not flexible enough to have PageWaiters manipulation
under the waitqueue lock (which simplifies concurrency).
This improves the performance of page lock intensive microbenchmarks by
2-3%.
Putting two bits in the same word opens the opportunity to remove the
memory barrier between clearing the lock bit and testing the waiters
bit, after some work on the arch primitives (e.g., ensuring memory
operand widths match and cover both bits).
