[PATCH] scripts: kernel_doc: fixup reporting of function identifiers

From: Mike Rapoport
Date: Tue Feb 13 2018 - 06:32:02 EST


When function description includes brackets after the function name as
suggested by Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc, the kernel-doc script
omits the function name from "Scanning doc for" report.
Extending match for identifier name with optional brackets fixes this
issue.
