Akira Yokosawa d933949672 scripts/kernel-doc: Get -export option working again ...

Since commit cdd30ebb1b ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string
literal"), exported symbols marked by EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(_GPL) are
ignored by "kernel-doc -export" in fresh build of "make htmldocs".

This is because regex in the perl script for those markers fails to
match the new signatures:

  - EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS(symbol, "ns");
  - EXPORT_SYMBOL_NS_GPL(symbol, "ns");

Update the regex so that it matches quoted string.

Note: Escape sequence of \w is good for C identifiers, but can be
too strict for quoted strings.  Instead, use \S, which matches any
non-whitespace character, for compatibility with possible extension
of namespace convention in the future [1].

Fixes: cdd30ebb1b ("module: Convert symbol namespace to string literal")
