Unfortunately, Sphinx 3.x parser for c functions is too pedantic: https://github.com/sphinx-doc/sphinx/issues/8241 While it could be relaxed with some configurations, there are several corner cases that it would make it hard to maintain, and will require teaching conf.py about several macros. So, let's instead use the :c:macro notation. This will produce an output that it is not as nice as currently, but it should still be acceptable, and will provide cross-references, removing thousands of warnings when building with newer versions of Sphinx.

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 Restructured Text 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.
