I've sent v2 of the patch [1] which amends the commit message to mention which the "()" were added. [1] https://lore.kernel.org/rcu/20200709130559.25588-1-tklauser@xxxxxxxxxx/ As noted in the previous message [2], adding the "()" doesn't change anything with regards to whether a link gets created and where it points to. Thus, I mentiond in the v2 commit message that this is only for consistency with kerneldoc comments of other functions in the same file.
