2930f57c0e docs: kernel_feat.py: fix build error for missing files
commit c23de7ceae59e4ca5894c3ecf4f785c50c0fa428 upstream.

If the directory passed to the '.. kernel-feat::' directive does not
exist or the get_feat.pl script does not find any files to extract
features from, Sphinx will report the following error:

    Sphinx parallel build error:
    UnboundLocalError: local variable 'fname' referenced before assignment
    make[2]: *** [Documentation/Makefile:102: htmldocs] Error 2

This is due to how I changed the script in c48a7c44a1d0 ("docs:
kernel_feat.py: fix potential command injection"). Before that, the
filename passed along to self.nestedParse() in this case was weirdly
just the whole get_feat.pl invocation.

We can fix it by doing what kernel_abi.py does -- just pass
self.arguments[0] as 'fname'.

f7f4ff54c4 docs: kernel_feat.py: fix potential command injection
commit c48a7c44a1d02516309015b6134c9bb982e17008 upstream.

The kernel-feat directive passes its argument straight to the shell.
This is unfortunate and unnecessary.

Let's always use paths relative to $srctree/Documentation/ and use
subprocess.check_call() instead of subprocess.Popen(shell=True).

This also makes the code shorter.

This is analogous to commit 3231dd586277 ("docs: kernel_abi.py: fix
command injection") where we did exactly the same thing for
kernel_abi.py, somehow I completely missed this one.

86a0adc029 Documentation/sphinx: fix Python string escapes
Python 3.6 introduced a DeprecationWarning for invalid escape sequences.
This is upgraded to a SyntaxWarning in Python 3.12, and will eventually
be a syntax error.

Fix these now to get ahead of it before it's an error.

f546ff0c0c Move our minimum Sphinx version to 1.7
As promised, drop support for some ancient sphinx releases, along with a
lot of the cruft that was required to make that support work.

b97212255f sphinx: kernel_feat.py: add a script to parse feature files
The feature files have a special well-defined format. Add
a script that parses them, allowing to search for a feature
and/or by an architecture and to produce ReST-compatible
outputs.
