Hi Aneesh,

Nit: That comment is useless, since you already have the kerneldoc
comment before.

Now I remember why I did that. Without that comment checkpatch gives
this "check".

CHECK: spinlock_t definition without comment
#124: FILE: drivers/misc/emif.c:54:
+ spinlock_t lock;

That's a pretty interesting comment :-)
I guess checkpatch should be able to check for a potential kerneldoc as well. You might want to report that to the checkpatch maintainer.

Thanks,
Benoit
