It is easy to forget adding/removing entries at the
Documentation/00-INDEX file. In a matter of fact, even before
ReST conversion, people use to forget adding things here, as
there are lots of missing stuff out there.

Now that we're doing a hard work converting entries to ReST,
and while this hole file is not outdated, it is good to have
some tool that would help to verify that this file is kept
updated.

Keeping both rst and in-file documentation in sync can be harsh.

So, simplify the script's internal documntation to a bare minimum,
and add a mention to the ReST file with its full documentation.

This way, a quick help is still available at the command line,
while the complete one is maintained at the ReST format.

As we won't be using pad2rst anymore, do a cleanup at the ReST
file.

Bring in the sphinxification of the sound documentation.

Bring in -rc4 patches so I can successfully merge the sound doc changes.

kernel-doc supports documenting struct members "inline" since
a4c6ebed ("scripts/kernel-doc Allow struct arguments documentation
in struct body"). This requires the inline kernel-doc comments to have
the opening and closing comment markers (/** and */ respectively) on
lines of their own, even for short comments. For example:

	/**
	 * struct foo - struct documentation
	 */
	struct foo {
		/**
		 * @bar: member documentation
		 */
		int bar;
	};

Add support for one line inline comments:

	/**
	 * struct foo - struct documentation
	 */
	struct foo {
		/** @bar: member documentation */
		int bar;
	};

Note that mixing of the two in one doc comment is not allowed; either
both comment markers must be on lines of their own, or both must be on
the one line. This limitation keeps both the comments more uniform, and
kernel-doc less complicated.
