[PATCH 27/38] docs: kdoc_re: don't remove the trailing ";" with NestedMatch

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
Date: 2026-02-18 10:13:29
Also in: intel-wired-lan, linux-doc, linux-hardening, lkml
Subsystem: documentation, documentation scripts, the rest · Maintainers: Jonathan Corbet, Mauro Carvalho Chehab, Linus Torvalds

Removing it causes the parse to break some conversions, when
NestedMatch is used on macros like __attribute__().
