I sent the patch [1] to default to "none". It's never wrong, not even
for code. But getting the highlighting wrong, OTOH, is pretty bad. We
have that.

And really, if you look at the kernel-doc comments and the rst
documentation, we don't have all that many literal blocks that would
benefit from syntax highlighting in the first place.
