When discussing with Dave at KS whether we could do some kind of markup
for drm only he asked me to use asciidoc instead of pandoc. So popular =
100% of the relevant maintainer (which is just Dave).
Suprisingly the markup doesn't really change much since mostly asciidoc is
just a (massive) extension of the markdown markup we've used. The changes
are really just in how it's glued into kernel-doc. At least I didn't
notice anything else yet. So yep, it's really just a tooling exchange that
resulted in markup language changes.
What I probably should mention is that asciidoc has better table support,
which is something we've run into a bit with markdown already (our
property tables ain't pretty).
