Thanks for the efforts. I've run this on top of Linus' tree, and the
only sphinx-related deprecation warning I've spotted is this one:
/home/onatalen/work/src/linux/Documentation/sphinx/cdomain.py:51: RemovedInSphinx30Warning: app.override_domain() is deprecated. Use app.add_domain() with override option instead.
app.override_domain(CDomain)
Otherwise, it builds.
