It can't go in linux/virt or linux/virt/fsl instead? why drivers/ ?
or maybe linux/virt should be drivers/virt ?

Why any later version? I thought that <powers> decided that Linux

This syntax should be (for all structs here):
* struct fsl_hv_ioctl_restart - restart a partition
but the struct fields/members do use ':' instead of '-'.
Darn, I checked Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt and it says
that ':' is optional but '-' is needed, so you could use
