docs: by default, build docs a lot faster with Sphinx >= 1.7
Since Sphinx version 1.7, it is possible to use "-jauto" in order to speedup documentation builds. On older versions, while -j was already supported, one would need to set the number of threads manually. So, if SPHINXOPTS is not provided, add -jauto, in order to speed up the build. That makes it *a lot* times faster than without -j. If one really wants to slow things down, it can just use: make SPHINXOPTS=-j1 htmldocs Signed-off-by: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+samsung@kernel.org> [ jc: fixed perl magic to determine sphinx version ] Signed-off-by: Jonathan Corbet <corbet@lwn.net>
