scripts: kernel-doc: Fix syntax error due to undeclared args variable
The backport of commit 3080ea5553cc ("stddef: Introduce DECLARE_FLEX_ARRAY() helper") to 5.10.y (as a prerequisite of another fix) modified scripts/kernel-doc and introduced a syntax error: Global symbol "$args" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare "my $args"?) at ./scripts/kernel-doc line 1236. Global symbol "$args" requires explicit package name (did you forget to declare "my $args"?) at ./scripts/kernel-doc line 1236. Execution of ./scripts/kernel-doc aborted due to compilation errors. Note: The issue could be fixed in the 5.10.y series as well by backporting e86bdb24375a ("scripts: kernel-doc: reduce repeated regex expressions into variables") but just replacing the undeclared args back to ([^,)]+) was the most straightforward approach. The issue is specific to the backport to the 5.10.y series. Thus there is as well no upstream commit for this change.
