Subject: [PATCH net-next] s390/ctcm: Convert fsm.h to proper kernel-doc format
Date: Mon,  3 Aug 2026 20:27:36 +0200	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20260803182736.2356374-1-nagamani@linux.ibm.com> (raw)

drivers/s390/net/fsm.h contains comments starting with '/**'
that don't follow kernel-doc syntax, triggering warnings when
running:

  scripts/kernel-doc -none -Wall drivers/s390/net/fsm*

Example warning:
Warning: drivers/s390/net/fsm.h:14 This comment starts with '/**', but isn't a kernel-doc comment. Refer to Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
 * Define this to get debugging messages.

Convert function declarations to proper kernel-doc format per
Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst. Change debug macros and
internal structure comments from '/**' to '/*' since they are
not part of the public API. Also add missing parameter name in
fsm_settimer() declaration to match the implementation. Remove
redundant extern keywords from all function declarations.

No functional change.
