Do these comments somehow qualify as an "external" option? If so, how
do I tell kernel-doc to ignore them? Or must I reword them to avoid
the word "external"?

$ grep external include/linux/rcupdate_wait.h
There is no occurrence of the string "external" in this file. So this
"external" option is unknown to me as well. So, any hints on how I
should interpret these error messages?

And thanks to Akira Yokosawa for pointing out my confusion in reading
these error messages. The line numbers of course apply to the file
Documentation/core-api/kernel-api.rst rather than the various RCU
C-language source files.
The patch below removes the error messages for me. Is this what you
had in mind? (Might need other options at some point, but somewhere
to start.)
Thanx, Paul

I have now fixed a number of these, thank you.
Any hints for how to represent code samples within a "/**" comment?

And after some playing around, I did get rid of the error messages.
The code-block output looks a bit strange though, hints? I preceded
the code block with "::", again at Akira's suggestion. It looks fine
except for the :c:func: and backquotes on the first and last lines.
Thanx, Paul

:c:func:`rcu_read_lock()`;
p = rcu_dereference(gp);
long_lived = is_long_lived(p);
if (long_lived) {
if (!atomic_inc_not_zero(p->refcnt))
long_lived = false;
else
p = rcu_pointer_handoff(p);

FYI: about kernel-doc option (export) take a look at
