Fix numerous (many) kernel-doc warnings in iucv.[ch]:
- remove kernel-doc on static functions in iucv.c
- convert function documentation comments to a common (kernel-doc) look,
even for static functions (without "/**")
- use matching parameter and parameter description names
Examples:
Warning: include/net/iucv/iucv.h:210 missing initial short description
on line: * iucv_unregister
Warning: include/net/iucv/iucv.h:216 function parameter 'handle' not
described in 'iucv_unregister'
Warning: include/net/iucv/iucv.h:467 function parameter 'answer' not
described in 'iucv_message_send2way'
Warning: net/iucv/iucv.c:727 missing initial short description on line:
* iucv_cleanup_queue
Build-tested with both "make htmldocs" and "make ARCH=s390 defconfig all".
Signed-off-by: Randy Dunlap <rdunlap@infradead.org>
---
v2:
- correct verbs in descriptions of 2 functions (Jakub)
- removed duplicate kernel-doc comments from the header file (Jakub)

Thank you very much for your effort Randy.

That's a bit inconsistent.
All the fixes look good to me. And they get rid of the mentioned warnings.
I appreciate your approach to use the existing wording, though it may not
be according to the latest style guidelines.

It's not kernel-doc, so no warning.
However, JFYI, for kernel-doc, it would need a "short description" after the
hyphen, whether it's a function, struct, enum, typedef, union, or define (macro).

OK, that's fine for structs that don't have kernel-doc notation.

That's described in the patch description:

but I can restore the "/**" (i.e., not change them to "/*").
OK, I'll do that.

Is that IBM style guidelines or kernel?

I'll send a v3. Hopefully it will be satisfactory.

I was referring to kernel style. I'm not saying that any rules are broken, but
some of the 'short descriptions' are a bit verbose. Mix of imperative and present mood,
Periods at the end of descriptions, etc
I don't think it's worth polishing that, I'd rather keep the original wording of the authors.
I highly appreciate getting rid of the warnings.

I meant to reply to this earlier. Yes, that command certainly works and
I do use it often.
But for testing this patch, I added some (scant) IUCV documentation to the
Documentation/ docbook. The patch that I used it attached.
If you are interested in adding it to the kernel tree, it needs some wordsmithing.
You should see one kernel-doc warning with this patch:
Documentation/networking/iucv:35: ../net/iucv/iucv.c:1918: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expecting "(" in parameters. [error at 12]
void __exit iucv_exit (void)
------------^
I have sent a kernel-doc patch for that:
