I'm still seeing this.

But it looks OK:

/**
 * lc_create - prepares to track objects in an active set
 * @name: descriptive name only used in lc_seq_printf_stats and lc_seq_dump_details
 * @cache: cache root pointer
 * @max_pending_changes: maximum changes to accumulate until a transaction is required
 * @e_count: number of elements allowed to be active simultaneously
 * @e_size: size of the tracked objects
 * @e_off: offset to the &struct lc_element member in a tracked object
 *
 * Returns a pointer to a newly initialized struct lru_cache on success,
 * or NULL on (allocation) failure.

struct lru_cache *lc_create(const char *name, struct kmem_cache *cache,
		unsigned max_pending_changes,
		unsigned e_count, size_t e_size, size_t e_off)
