The opening comment mark '/**' is used for highlighting the beginning of kernel-doc comments. The header for include/linux/platform_data/omap-twl4030.h follows this syntax, but the content inside does not comply with kernel-doc. This line was probably not meant for kernel-doc parsing, but is parsed due to the presence of kernel-doc like comment syntax(i.e, '/**'), which causes unexpected warning from kernel-doc: warning: expecting prototype for omap(). Prototype was for _OMAP_TWL4030_H_() instead Provide a simple fix by replacing this occurrence with general comment format, i.e. '/*', to prevent kernel-doc from parsing it.
