I don't see the point in adding kernel-doc for a static function while
deleting it for a non-static function?  I'd change the name of the
function in the second hunk and drop the first hunk.

Also, the comment doesn't actually fit the kernel-doc format (colon
versus hyphen; missing capitalisation and full-stop).

I think the documentation has the right name here; it is the number of
entries and not the number of pages which is returned.  We should change
the code to match the documentation here ;-)
