Subject: [PATCH tip/core/rcu 13/19] rcu: Get rid of some doc warnings in update.c
Date: Wed, 15 Apr 2020 10:10:48 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20200415171054.9013-13-paulmck@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <20200415171017.GA7821@paulmck-ThinkPad-P72>

From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab <mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>

This commit escapes *ret, because otherwise the documentation system
thinks that this is an incomplete emphasis block:

	./kernel/rcu/update.c:65: WARNING: Inline emphasis start-string without end-string.
	./kernel/rcu/update.c:65: WARNING: Inline emphasis start-string without end-string.
	./kernel/rcu/update.c:70: WARNING: Inline emphasis start-string without end-string.
	./kernel/rcu/update.c:82: WARNING: Inline emphasis start-string without end-string.
