Subject: mm/util: make strndup_user description a kernel-doc comment
Patch series "memory management documentation updates", v3.
Here are several updates to the mm documentation.
Aside from really minor changes in the first three patches, the updates
are:
* move the documentation of kstrdup and friends to "String Manipulation"
section
* split memory management API into a separate .rst file
* adjust formating of the GFP flags description and include it in the
reference documentation.
This patch (of 7):
The description of the strndup_user function misses '*' character at the
beginning of the comment to be proper kernel-doc. Add the missing
character.
