Subject: scripts/kernel-doc: drop "_noprof" on function prototypes
Date: Mon, 25 Mar 2024 22:41:49 -0700
Memory profiling introduces macros as hooks for function-level allocation
profiling[1]. Memory allocation functions that are profiled are named
like xyz_alloc() for API access to the function. xyz_alloc() then calls
xyz_alloc_noprof() to do the allocation work.
The kernel-doc comments for the memory allocation functions are introduced
with the xyz_alloc() function names but the function implementations are
the xyz_alloc_noprof() names. This causes kernel-doc warnings for
mismatched documentation and function prototype names. By dropping the
"_noprof" part of the function name, the kernel-doc function name matches
the function prototype name, so the warnings are resolved.
