scripts: kernel_doc: fixup reporting of function identifiers
When function description includes brackets after the function name as suggested by Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc, the kernel-doc script omits the function name from "Scanning doc for" report. Extending match for identifier name with optional brackets fixes this issue. Signed-off-by: Mike Rapoport <rppt@linux.vnet.ibm.com> Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
