The Sphinx folks deprecated some interfaces in the 2.0 release; one immediate result of that is a bunch of warnings that show up when building with 1.8. These two patches make those warnings go away, but at a cost: - It introduces a couple of Sphinx version checks, which are always ugly, but the alternative would be to stop supporting versions before 1.7. For now, I think we can carry that cruft. - The second patch causes the build to fail horribly on newer Sphinx installations. The change to switch_source_input() seems to make the parser much more finicky, increasing warnings and eventually failing the build altogether. In particular, it will scream about problems in .rst files that are not included in the TOC tree at all. This version of the patch set fixes up the worst problems (the i915 error in particular, which breaks the build hard). I've tested it with versions 1.4, 1.8, and 2.0. Given that these problems are already breaking builds on some systems, I think I may try to sell these changes to Linus for 5.2 still.
