I tried to use docbookrx for the bits that were not properly converted,
like the manpage-like pages:

$  ../docbookrx/bin/docbookrx Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/func-ioctl.xml
No visitor defined for <refentry>! Skipping.

Dan, if you want to take a look on what's going wrong here, 
the XML I'm trying to convert is:

        
https://git.linuxtv.org/media_tree.git/tree/Documentation/DocBook/media/v4l/func-ioctl.xml

If this would work, it should be generating something like:
        https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/asciidoc-poc.git/tree/func-ioctl.adoc

Pandoc failed to fully convert it, but at least it left all the texts,
with prevented rewriting it from scratch. This is the manual fix
I applied to it:
        
https://git.linuxtv.org/mchehab/asciidoc-poc.git/commit/func-ioctl.adoc?id=801d336c3742f26731e08c284290c32c0b4632fc

FYI, we have 133 xml files at the media uAPI doc with refmeta.
