We don't use kernel-doc for uAPI. Instead, we document those via the
media infrastructure DocBook.

I don't object to use the same format here, but adding the uAPI stuff
to both device-drivers.xml and media_api.xml doesn't seem right.

That's said, we may eventually change the media infrastructure DocBook
to also run the kernel-doc script and benefit of kernel-doc markups
also for the uAPI, but this is out of the scope of this work, and would
take some time to do it.

So, at least for now, I would keep the comments like the above.

OK.

Ok.
