It occured to me too ;-) I think what we'd need to undertake that step:
- More polish on the kernel side. There's talk about rewriting the C
  parser into something slightly less horrible than a state machine
  implemented in perl regexes ...
- Probably more operational experience with the new kernel doc toolchain.
  Right now we're all happy with how it works and haven't discovered the
  new real warts yet. But there are, e.g. media folks have found some fun
  with how sphinx handles (or doesn't handle) functions with the same
  name&signature.
- Someone with too much time.

But yes, I think the kernel doc toolchain is now the one that sucks less
compared to igt, pre 4.8 it was definitely igt/gtk-doc that sucked less
imo.
