Many kernel-doc comments referenced by Documentation/core-api/mm-api.rst have the return value descriptions misformatted or lack it completely. This makes kernel-doc script unhappy and produces more than 100 warnings when running make htmldocs V=1 These patches fix the formatting of present return value descriptions and add some new ones. Side note: ---------- I've noticed that kernel-doc produces warning: contents before sections when it is parsing description of a function that has no parameters, but does have a return value, i.e. unsigned long nr_free_buffer_pages(void) As far as I can tell, the generated html is ok no matter if the detailed description present before 'the sections', so probably this warning is not really needed?
