[PATCH v6 41/80] docs: kgdb.rst: fix :c:type: usages

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Tue Oct 13 2020 - 07:59:25 EST


Which Sphinx 3, :c:type: can't be used anymore for structs,
as this should be used only for typedefs.

Rely on automarkup.py for struct references.

This file has an special case, though: it uses the tag also
to point to an array. Let's use, instead, :c:expr: for such
purpose, as it should do the right thing.

This should fix this warning:

./Documentation/dev-tools/kgdb.rst:875: WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'kdb_poll_funcs[]'
Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 14]
kdb_poll_funcs[]
