[ Upstream commit be9264110e4e874622d588a75daf930539fdf6ea ]
The section counter tracks how many sections of kernel-doc were added. The only real use of the counter value is to check if anything was actually supposed to be output and give a warning is nothing is available.
The current logic of remembering the initial value and then resetting the value then when processing each file means that if a file has the same number of sections as the previously processed one, a warning is incorrectly given.
