ctags: usability fix
The tag file generated by the tags.sh script has some issue.
First:
The identifier-list miss the
DEFINE_TRACE,EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL,EXPORT_TRACEPOINT_SYMBOL_GPL
special handling, which can result in a wrong tag, not to jump to the
right variable definition or function implementation.
Second:
It makes no real sense to include function prototypes and external and
forward variable declarations, because jumping to a tag will sometimes
go to this and not to the real definition and implementation. The information
about the declaration is still there at the definition and implementation
place.
So this patch make it lot easier to navigate through the kernel source
tree using vi.
