The opening comment mark '/**' is used for highlighting the beginning of kernel-doc comments. The header for drivers/nfc/nfcmrvl 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 warnings from kernel-doc. For e.g., running scripts/kernel-doc -none on drivers/nfc/nfcmrvl/spi.c causes warning: warning: expecting prototype for Marvell NFC(). Prototype was for SPI_WAIT_HANDSHAKE() instead Provide a simple fix by replacing such occurrences with general comment format, i.e. '/*', to prevent kernel-doc from parsing it.
