Kerneldoc syntax is used, but not complete.  Descriptions required.

Prevents warnings like:

 drivers/mfd/wm8350-core.c:136: warning: Function parameter or member 'wm8350' not described in 'wm8350_reg_lock'
 drivers/mfd/wm8350-core.c:165: warning: Function parameter or member 'wm8350' not described in 'wm8350_reg_unlock'

Why are all of these documentation fixes for stable?
Because they fix compiler warnings.
When you type 'make' these warnings show up?  We don't do documentation
builds as part of a normal build...

If for some reason we ever get rid of all of the thousands of current
warnings, then yes, I will be glad to consider stuff like this then.

thanks,

greg k-h
