    kernel-doc: concatenate contents of colliding sections · 32217761

    If there are multiple sections with the same section name, the current
    implementation results in several sections by the same heading, with the
    content duplicated from the last section to all. Even if there's the
    error message, a more graceful approach is to combine all the
    identically named sections into one, with concatenated contents.
    
    With the supported sections already limited to select few, there are
    massively fewer collisions than there used to be, but this is still
    useful for e.g. when function parameters are documented in the middle of
    a documentation comment, with description spread out above and
    below. (This is not a recommended documentation style, but used in the
    kernel nonetheless.)
    
    We can now also demote the error to a warning.
