[PATCH v4 08/52] scripts: kernel-doc: fix typedef identification

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Wed Sep 30 2020 - 09:28:53 EST


Some typedef expressions are output as normal functions.

As we need to be clearer about the type with Sphinx 3.x,
detect such cases.

While here, fix a wrongly-indented block.
