$ grep external include/linux/rcupdate.h

Do these comments somehow qualify as an "external" option?  If so, how
do I tell kernel-doc to ignore them?  Or must I reword them to avoid
the word "external"?

$ grep external include/linux/rcupdate_wait.h

There is no occurrence of the string "external" in this file.  So this
"external" option is unknown to me as well.  So, any hints on how I
should interpret these error messages?
