Subject: scripts/kernel-doc: handle struct member __aligned
From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>
scripts/kernel-doc erroneously says:
Warning(include/linux/skbuff.h:410): Excess struct/union/enum/typedef member 'cb' description in 'sk_buff'
on this line in struct sk_buff:
char cb[48] __aligned(8);
due to treating the last field as the struct member name, so teach
kernel-doc to ignore __aligned(x) in structs.
