From 6cc89134c07b223038be9de7854364bb7ba3a210 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: "mchehab@s-opensource.com" Date: Thu, 30 Mar 2017 17:11:33 -0300 Subject: [PATCH] kernel-api.rst: fix output of the vsnprintf() documentation The vsnprintf() kernel-doc comment uses % character with a special meaning other than escaping a constant. As ReST already defines ``literal`` as an escape sequence, let's make kernel-doc handle it, and use it at lib/vsprintf.c.
