The quilt patch titled
     Subject: mm/highmem: fix kernel-doc warnings in highmem*.h
has been removed from the -mm tree.  Its filename was
     mm-highmem-fix-kernel-doc-warnings-in-highmemh.patch

This patch was dropped because it was merged into the mm-stable branch\nof git://git.kernel.org/pub/scm/linux/kernel/git/akpm/mm

Subject: mm/highmem: fix kernel-doc warnings in highmem*.h

Patch series "Extend and reorganize Highmem's documentation", v4.

This series has the purpose to extend and reorganize Highmem's
documentation.

This is a work in progress because some information should still be moved
from highmem.rst to highmem.h and highmem-internal.h.  Specifically I'm
talking about moving the "how to" information to the relevant headers, as
it as been suggested by Ira Weiny (Intel).

Also, this is a work in progress because some kdocs in highmem.h and
highmem-internal.h should be improved.


This patch (of 4):

`scripts/kernel-doc -v -none include/linux/highmem*` reports the following
warnings:

include/linux/highmem.h:160: warning: expecting prototype for kunmap_atomic(). Prototype was for nr_free_highpages() instead
include/linux/highmem.h:204: warning: No description found for return value of 'alloc_zeroed_user_highpage_movable'
include/linux/highmem-internal.h:256: warning: Function parameter or member '__addr' not described in 'kunmap_atomic'
include/linux/highmem-internal.h:256: warning: Excess function parameter 'addr' description in 'kunmap_atomic'

Fix these warnings by (1) moving the kernel-doc comments from highmem.h to
highmem-internal.h (which is the file were the kunmap_atomic() macro is
actually defined), (2) extending and merging it with the comment which was
already in highmem-internal.h, and (3) using correct parameter names (4)
correcting a few technical inaccuracies in comments, and (5) adding a
deprecation notice in kunmap_atomic() for consistency with kmap_atomic().
