Hi Jason,
FYI, the error/warning still remains.
This is just a long standing kdoc misuse.
vfio is not W=1 kdoc clean.
Until someone takes a project to fix this comprehensively there is not
much point in reporting new complaints related the existing mis-use..
Hi,
Can we just remove all misused "/**" comments in vfio.c until
someone cares enough to use proper kernel-doc there?

Subject: [PATCH] vfio/vfio: remove all kernel-doc notation
vfio.c abuses (misuses) "/**", which indicates the beginning of
kernel-doc notation in the kernel tree. This causes a bunch of
kernel-doc complaints about this source file, so quieten all of
them by changing all "/**" to "/*".
