CC [M] drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.o drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.c:2078: error: Cannot parse struct or union! scripts/Makefile.build:310: recipe for target 'drivers/net/wireless/broadcom/brcm80211/brcmfmac/sdio.o' failed Seems like something happened with W=1 and wrong kernel doc format. As a quick fix remove dubious /** in the code.
