[PATCH v6 22/80] docs: remove some replace macros like |struct foo|
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Tue Oct 13 2020 - 08:01:27 EST
There are three files with replace macros for structs,
mapping them into Sphinx 2.x C domain references.
Well, this is broken on Sphinx 3.x. Also, for Sphinx 2.x,
the automarkup macro should be able to take care of them.
So, let's just drop those.
