The python version of the kernel-doc parser emits some strange warnings
with just a line number in certain cases:
$ ./scripts/kernel-doc -Wall -none 'include/linux/virtio_config.h'
Warning: 174
Warning: 184
Warning: 190
Warning: include/linux/virtio_config.h:226 No description found for return value of '__virtio_test_bit'
Warning: include/linux/virtio_config.h:259 No description found for return value of 'virtio_has_feature'
Warning: include/linux/virtio_config.h:283 No description found for return value of 'virtio_has_dma_quirk'
Warning: include/linux/virtio_config.h:392 No description found for return value of 'virtqueue_set_affinity'
I eventually tracked this down to the lone call of emit_msg() in the
KernelEntry class, which looks like:
self.emit_msg(self.new_start_line, f"duplicate section name '{name}'\n")
This looks like all the other emit_msg calls. Unfortunately, the definition
within the KernelEntry class takes only a message parameter and not a line
number. The intended message is passed as the warning!
Pass the filename to the KernelEntry class, and use this to build the log
message in the same way as the KernelDoc class does.
To avoid future errors, mark the warning parameter for both emit_msg
definitions as a keyword-only argument. This will prevent accidentally
passing a string as the warning parameter in the future.
Also fix the call in dump_section to avoid an unnecessary additional
newline.

Linux kernel
============
There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.
In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``. The formatted documentation can also be read online at:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/
There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the reStructuredText markup notation.
Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
