Have you read Jon's message in the thread archived at:
https://lore.kernel.org/linux-doc/874jf4m384.fsf@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
I think you can see why there had been no submission of a proper patch
in your patch's direction nor others.
If you still want your patch applied soon, you need to convince Jon.
A patch that helps us to go in the direction of 1) in Jon's message is
most welcome!
Be aware that if you simply remove ==2.4.4 from requirements.txt,
sphinx-pre-install will prevent you from running "make htmldocs".
You'll see this error:
Can't get default sphinx version from ./Documentation/sphinx/requirements.txt at ./scripts/sphinx-pre-install line 305.
Happy hacking!
Thanks, Akira
