Kernel function documentation question

[Ben Dooks <ben-linux@fluff.org>]

The Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt says that functions
should be documented as so:

/**
 * foobar() - short function description of foobar

I notice there are a number of places that ommit the () off the
foobar, for example:

include/linux/skbuff.h, line 461:

/**
 *	skb_get - reference buffer
 *	@skb: buffer to reference

where skb_get does not have ()s.

As a note, it seems the default debian emacs does not colour the
function name unless it ends ().

Also, is there any policy on tabs vs a single space for indenting
these comments?
