drivers/gpu/drm/amd/display/amdgpu_dm/amdgpu_dm_color.c contains 7 (for
now) functions that use STATIC_IFN_KUNIT or INLINE_IFN_KUNIT macros for
function qualifiers (static or not, inline or not).
These cause parse warnings from kernel-doc:
Invalid C declaration: Expected identifier in nested name, got keyword:
struct [error at 29]
STATIC_IFN_KUNIT const struct drm_color_lut * __extract_blob_lut (const
struct drm_property_blob *blob, uint32_t *size)
Handle these in kernel-doc to prevent multiple warnings.

The context analysis macros are function attributes that should be
in the function_xforms list. Somewhere along the way they were
inserted into the struct_xforms list instead. This causes docs build
warnings to continue to be emitted for context macros.
Move the context analysis macros to the function_xforms list where
they should be to eliminate these warnings.

The `__counted_by_ptr` macro was recently introduced [1] to extend
bounds checking semantics to standard dynamically allocated pointers.
However, the new Python implementation of kernel-doc does not currently
recognize it as a compiler attribute. When kernel-doc encounters a
struct member annotated with this macro, it fails to parse the variable
name correctly, resulting in false-positive warnings like:
Warning: ... struct member '__counted_by_ptr(cmdcnt' not described
Add `__counted_by_ptr` to the `struct_xforms` regex list so it gets
safely stripped out during the parsing phase, mirroring the existing
behavior for `__counted_by`. Update the corresponding unit tests.

Most of the rules inside CTransforms are of the type CMatch.
Don't re-parse the source code every time.
Doing this doesn't change the output, but makes kdoc almost
as fast as before the tokenizer patches:
# Before tokenizer patches
$ time ./scripts/kernel-doc . -man >original 2>&1
real 0m42.933s
user 0m36.523s
sys 0m1.145s
# After tokenizer patches
$ time ./scripts/kernel-doc . -man >before 2>&1
real 1m29.853s
user 1m23.974s
sys 0m1.237s
# After this patch
$ time ./scripts/kernel-doc . -man >after 2>&1
real 0m48.579s
user 0m45.938s
sys 0m0.988s
$ diff -s before after
Files before and after are identical
Manually checked the differences between original and after
with:
$ diff -U0 -prBw original after|grep -v Warning|grep -v "@@"|less
They're due:
- whitespace fixes;
- struct_group are now better handled;
- several badly-generated man pages from broken inline kernel-doc
markups are now fixed.

The previous approach were to unwind nested structs/unions.
Now that we have a logic that can handle it well, use it to
ensure that struct_group macros will properly reflect the
actual struct.
Note that the replacemend logic still simplifies the code
a little bit, as the basic build block for struct group is:
union { \
struct { MEMBERS } ATTRS; \
struct __struct_group_tag(TAG) { MEMBERS } ATTRS NAME; \
} ATTRS
There:
- ATTRS is meant to add extra macro attributes like __packed
which we already discard, as they aren't relevant to
document struct members;
- TAG is used only when built with __cplusplus.
So, instead, convert them into just:
struct { MEMBERS };
Please notice that here, we're using the greedy version of the
backrefs, as MEMBERS is actually MEMBERS... on all such macros.

Drop context analysis and lock (tracking) attributes to avoid
kernel-doc warnings.
There are now lots of warnings like these:

The regex is suggested by Mauro; mine was too greedy. Thanks.

Over the time, most of the changes at kernel-doc are related
to maintaining a list of transforms to convert macros into pure
C code.
Place such transforms on a separate module, to cleanup the
parser module.
There is an advantage on that: QEMU also uses our own kernel-doc,
but the xforms list there is different. By placing it on a
separate module, we can minimize the differences and make it
easier to keep QEMU in sync with Kernel upstream.
No functional changes.
