After merging the printk tree, today's linux-next build (htmldocs)

I presume that "printk" is referred to elsewhere in the documentation
as being in this file.
Hmm, this is an interesting one, because I think we still generally just want
to refer to the API as being `printk()`. Changing it all over the place seems
wrong. As you'd imagine, there are quite a few references to this name, so it
requires a lot of noise all over the docs and inline comments.
Jonathan and other docs folks, how can one tell Sphinx that when it sees
printk() it's referring to a function-like macro, or otherwise squelch this
reasonably? :-)
