The kernel-doc attempts to clear the struct and struct member attributes
from the API documentation it produces. It falls short of the job in the
following respects:
- extra whitespaces are left where __attribute__((...)) was removed,
- only a single attribute is removed per struct,
- attributes (such as aligned) containing numbers were not removed,
- attributes are only cleared from struct fields, not structs themselves.
This patch addresses these issues by removing the attributes.
