Re: [PATCH v1] docs: gpu: rfc: i915_scheduler.rst remove unused directives for namespacing

When running `make htmldocs` the following warnings are given.

```
Documentation/gpu/rfc/i915_scheduler.rst:138: WARNING:
Unknown directive type "c:namespace-push".

.. c:namespace-push:: rfc
Documentation/gpu/rfc/i915_scheduler.rst:143: WARNING:
Unknown directive type "c:namespace-pop".

.. c:namespace-pop::
```

The kernel test robot also reported it here.

Last year Maryam Tahhan <mtahhan@xxxxxxxxxx> from Redhat noticed something
similar. "The missing support of c:namespace-push:: and c:namespace-pop::
directives by helper scripts for kernel documentation prevents using the
``c:function::`` directive with proper namespacing." From the context, it
sounds like this was brought about from a Sphinx update.

When compiled the `.. kernel-doc::` literal gives it the same formatting with
or without the namespace directives present. Due to the above information I
think it safe to remove these, as they don't seem to do anything but
throw warnings.
