I don't see any visible changes in my htmldocs build (since the
kernel-doc is for inline version of kmem_cache_create()).
You will also need to update kernel-doc comment for
kmem_cache_create_usercopy() and kmem_cache_create() in
mm/slab_common.c. Since the latter function is actually a wrapper
on the former, the return value description (Return: field)
should be same on both.

Thanks.
