When kernel-doc:: specified in .rst document without explicit directives,
it outputs both comment and DOC: sections. If a DOC: section was explictly
included in the same document it will be duplicated. For example, the
output generated for Documentation/core-api/idr.rst [1] has "IDA
description" in the "IDA usage" section and in the middle of the API
reference.

Addition of "nodocs" directive prevents the duplication without the need to
explicitly define what functions should be include in the API reference.

I'm not convinved this is the prettiest way to achieve what you
want. 'nodocs' seems kind of clunky.

I'd suggest supporting 'functions' without option arguments, and turning
that into kernel-doc -no-doc-sections.
Do you mean something like this:

The usage in patch 2/2 would turn into:

.. kernel-doc:: include/linux/idr.h
   :functions:

which I think is much better overall in the rst source, complementing
the places where you use :doc:.
