[PATCH v2 1/2] kernel-doc: don't let V=1 change outcome

[Johannes Berg <johannes@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx>]

From: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

The kernel-doc script currently reports a number of issues
only in "verbose" mode, but that's initialized from V=1
(via KBUILD_VERBOSE), so if you use KDOC_WERROR=1 then
adding V=1 might actually break the build. This is rather
unexpected.

Change kernel-doc to not change its behaviour wrt. errors
(or warnings) when verbose mode is enabled, but rather add
separate warning flags (and -Wall) for it. Allow enabling
those flags via environment/make variables in the kernel's
build system for easier user use, but to not have to parse
them in the script itself.

Signed-off-by: Johannes Berg <johannes.berg@xxxxxxxxx>

v2: - parse environment variables in build system rather than
      the script itself, as suggested by Masahiro Yamada
    - fix indentation
