scripts/kernel-doc throws one warning:
watchdog_dev.c:1194: warning: contents before sections
which is a bug in the script IMO.
I would just ignore this one.

scripts/kernel-doc does not nicely handle a function that has
no parameters (hence no @param descriptions) that is followed
by a function description.
Adding one line (I am not suggesting this as a patch) stops the
warning:
* @void: none
This is the function that kernel-doc complains about
(nothing wrong with it):
/**
* watchdog_dev_init - init dev part of watchdog core
*
* Allocate a range of chardev nodes to use for watchdog devices.
*
* Return: 0 if successful, error otherwise.
*/
int __init watchdog_dev_init(void)
