The CI style checking solution can produce false positives when it's
given code that it mis-parses, or that follows conventions it doesn't
allow. Document a couple examples, and explicitly note that
maintainers should override the -1 vote if they're encountered.
For those following along in the commit history:
static uint8_t __aligned(PAGE_SIZE) page_pool[PAGE_SIZE * POOL_PAGES];
checkpatch sees "uint8_t __aligned(PAGE_SIZE)" and infers a prototype
for a function "__aligned" that takes an unnamed parameter of type
"PAGE_SIZE". So it adds "PAGE_SIZE" as a known type name.
IOPCTL_Type *base = config->base;
This is common in driver code where the vendor HAL allows typedefs for
structure types. checkpatch was designed for an environment with
limited use of typedefs; "struct IPCTL_Type" would have been handled
properly.

Remove leading/trailing blank lines in .c, .h, .py, .rst, .yml, and

As discussed in the TSC meeting of 2019/03/27:
To ensure that we do not forget to remove an API 2 releases later
and to provide a bit better visibility about when the removal
is planned, require that a GH issue be created, and that this
issue be added to the roadmap for the apropriate release.
As a free bonus:
Removed a redundant line in the list and added one missing article.

Linking to API material requires knowing the pecularities of how
doxygen, sphinx, and breathe work. In an attempt to hide some of this
we're preparing the current docs to allow use of configuration defaults
that will let us more simply use a default role that will hunt for a
reference target in the various domains that are available by using a
default "role" of "all". This will let us use the simple notation
`functionname` or `typename` without fully specifying the reference as
:c:func:`functionname`.
This patch cleans up exising docs that were (incorrectly) using single
backtics where double backtics should have been used, and also found
some typos (such as a space between the role name and the reference,
such as :file: `filename`, and a missing colon such as
c:func:`functionname`)
This is a start to address issue #14313
