Since commit cdd30ebb1b9f ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string
literal"), exported symbols marked by EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(_GPL) are
ignored by "kernel-doc -export" in fresh build of "make htmldocs".
This is because regex in the perl script for those markers fails to
match the new signatures:
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(symbol, "ns");
- EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(symbol, "ns");
Update the regex so that it matches quoted string.
Note: Escape sequence of \w is good for C identifiers, but can be
too strict for quoted strings. Instead, use \S, which matches any
non-whitespace character, for compatibility with possible extension
of namespace convention in the future [1].

This fixes regression in v6.13-rc2.
Quick reproducer:
./script/kernel-doc -rst -export drivers/iommu/iommufd/device.c
On v6.13-rc2, kernel-doc will say:
drivers/iommu/iommufd/device.c:1: warning: no structured comments found
With this patch applied, you'll get reST formatted kernel-doc comments.
