Kerneldoc syntax is used, but not complete.  Descriptions required.

Prevents warnings like:

 drivers/mfd/wm8350-core.c:136: warning: Function parameter or member 'wm8350' not described in 'wm8350_reg_lock'
 drivers/mfd/wm8350-core.c:165: warning: Function parameter or member 'wm8350' not described in 'wm8350_reg_unlock'

Because they fix compiler warnings.

Not correct?

When you type 'make' these warnings show up?  We don't do documentation
builds as part of a normal build...

If for some reason we ever get rid of all of the thousands of current
warnings, then yes, I will be glad to consider stuff like this then.

thanks,

I am overjoyed to see people fixing docs build warnings, it is work that
is desperately needed.  That said, these warning fixes are probably not
stable material; the problem is bigger and longer-term than that.

Thanks,

'make W=1' yes. :)

Workin' on it!

Sorry for the noise (for now).

I'll do what I can with the time that I have.

The plan is to keep plodding on and seeing how far I can take it.  A
clean W=1 build sounds like rainbows and unicorns presently, but Rome
wasn't built in a day.

Tell you the truth, drafting patches (again, after a break) is a
welcome change/release from digging around and reviewing Android
Stable patches.  It's the only thing keeping me sane. :)

Fair enough.
