Jon,

Did a patch fixing the quibbles.

As it seems you didn't push yet the changeset upstream, feel free to
just fold it with patch 5/5 if you prefer so, or to add as a separate

Patch enclosed.

It is easy to forget adding/removing entries at the
Documentation/00-INDEX file. In a matter of fact, even before
ReST conversion, people use to forget adding things here, as
there are lots of missing stuff out there.

Now that we're doing a hard work converting entries to ReST,
and while this hole file is not outdated, it is good to have
some tool that would help to verify that this file is kept
updated.

Keeping both rst and in-file documentation in sync can be harsh.

So, simplify the script's internal documntation to a bare minimum,
and add a mention to the ReST file with its full documentation.

This way, a quick help is still available at the command line,
while the complete one is maintained at the ReST format.

As we won't be using pad2rst anymore, do a cleanup at the ReST
file.

Add the appropriate markup to get the kerneldoc comments out of

comments themselves.

A couple of the most minor heading tweaks, otherwise no changes to the text

Note that the inclusion of the kerneldoc comments from the source has never
worked, since exported symbols were asked for and none of those functions
are exported to modules.  It doesn't work here either :)
