The command-line parameters "dyndbg" and "async_probe" are not
parameters for kernel/module.c but instead they are for the
module that is being loaded. Try to make that distinction in the
help text.

OTOH, "module.sig_enforce" is handled as a parameter of kernel/module.c
so "module." is correct for it.

abi.rst to use ReStructured Text more fully and updates the entries to
match current kernels:

  * the list of files is now the table of contents;
  * links are used to point to other documentation and other sections;
  * all the existing entries are no longer present, so this removes

  * document vsyscall32.

Subroutine dump_struct uses type attributes to check if the struct
syntax is valid. Then, it removes all attributes before using it for
output. `____cacheline_aligned` is an attribute that is
not included in both steps. Add it, since it is used by kernel structs.

Based on previous patch to add ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp.
Motivated by patches to reorder this attribute to before the
variable name.   Whilst we could do that in all cases, that would
be a massive change and it is more common in the kernel to place
this particular attribute after the variable name. A quick grep
suggests approximately 400 instances of which 341 have this
attribute just before a semicolon and hence after the variable name.

Cross-referencing to other documentation pages is possible using the
:doc:`doc-file` directive from Sphinx.

Add automatic markup for references to other documentation pages in the
format Documentation/subfolder/doc-file.rst (the extension being
optional).
This requires that the path be passed all the way from the Documentation
folder, which can be longer than passing a relative path through the
:doc: directive, but avoids the markup, making the text cleaner when
read in plain text.

The automarkup script previously matched expressions and substituted
them with markup to enable automatic cross-reference all in the same
function.
