I'm guessing you can't use tabs for the first indentation level
here. IIRC kernel-doc removes the leading comment marker and one
whitespace whether it's space or tab, resulting in rst where the
code-block contents are only partially indented.

Please test the documentation build before applying.

Otherwise, the series seems like a nice cleanup.
