I felt like the function name sufficiently explains what it does. I do
occasionally keep the kerneldoc when making a function static, but
only when it explains something tricky. "People who work on drm core
code" is a different audience from "people who write drm drivers". If
we'd want comments like the above on all static functions in the drm
core, someone would need to do a _lot_ of typing :-)
