I tried using c:member. It won't work on LaTeX output, as it will
still put everything into a LaTeX item, with doesn't do line breaks.

Also, according to Sphinx manual at 
http://www.sphinx-doc.org/en/stable/domains.html
The syntax is:

        .. c:member:: type name

            Describes a C struct member. Example signature:

                .. c:member:: PyObject* PyTypeObject.tp_bases

So, it expects <type> <member> as arguments. If the manual is right, it
would be expecting, instead, the weird syntax:

   .. c:member::  int (*) (struct v4l2_subdev *sd, u8 *buf, size_t 
count,ssize_t *num) rx_read

With hurts my eyes.

As I guess we don't want to maintain ourselves a LaTeX output Sphinx
plugin forked from upstream, I guess that a more definitive solution
would involve overriding  the parser for c:member in a way that it would
produce an output like the one in this path, while creating the proper
c domain reference for the structure member inside the C domain.

Mauro
