You may still want to fix warnings generated by:
./scripts/kernel-doc -v drivers/staging/ti-soc-thermal/ti-bandgap.c>/dev/null
For example - the following changes are required for proper error return
documentation (following diff is just an hint):

Although I think the above is a good thing to be done, I don't think it 
is considered mandatory, and for this reason, I don't believe the above 
should block this patch. Basically because, after this patch, at least 
kernel-doc runs successfully.

Besides, there is very few evidence that ppl out there care much about 
"-v". A quick grep+awk would inform you this. If you consider the 
population of C files (around 35.4K files) inside the tree (simple find 
* | grep .*\\.[c,h]$ in your tree), only around 12.0% has structured 
comments. Out of the files that have structured comments, only about 
11.0% has 0 warnings (including 0 warnings with -v), that's something 
like ~500 files. A considerable amount don't care about "-v" (34% out of 
the files with structured comments). Actually most of them don't care 
about warnings (89% out of the files with structured comments) at all. :-)

That said, I am going to send a separate patch to fix the "-v" later on. 
Including your chunks below.

Thanks for reviewing.
