I can't yet understand what you have done here. AIUI a2disconf
removes symlinks in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/ that were previously
created there by a2enconf.
OTOH, apache2-doc.conf is a pkg-provided conffile in
/etc/apache2/conf-available/. During an upgrade, it will be
automatically upgraded if it hasn't been altered. If you've
altered it, then there's usually a dialogue presented about
what to do¹. But in any case, that's nothing to do with
symlinks in /etc/apache2/conf-enabled/.
A more specific description of the symptoms might help.

¹ Configuration file `foo/bar'
==> Modified (by you or by a script) since installation.
==> Package distributor has shipped an updated version.
What would you like to do about it ? Your options are:
Y or I : install the package maintainer's version
N or O : keep your currently-installed version
D : show the differences between the versions
Z : start a shell to examine the situation
The default action is to keep your current version.
*** bar (Y/I/N/O/D/Z) [default=N] ?
Cheers,
David.
