Subject: kernel-doc: fix param matching for array params
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e34e7dbb35474ffc75f639eca64a18a15f4f8688;p=GitHub%2Fmt8127%2Fandroid_kernel_alcatel_ttab.git

kernel-doc: fix param matching for array params

Fix function actual parameter vs. kernel-doc description matching
so that a warning is not printed when it should not be:

Warning(include/linux/etherdevice.h:199): Excess function parameter 'addr' description in 'is_etherdev_addr'
