Re: [RFC] scripts: kernel-doc: avoid warnings due to initial commented lines in file

Yeah, and as this line-counting is really just a poor man's
heuristics, we might just be better to really turn this heuristics
into a dedicated cleanup warning script, then we can check for more
indicators, such as "does it contain the word Copyright" somewhere in
the kernel-doc comment, which tells us even more that this is not a
kernel-doc as we would expect it.

I really don't think we need that kind of heuristic.  The format of
kerneldoc comments is fairly rigid; it shouldn't be too hard to pick out
the /** comments that don't fit that format, right?  Am I missing
something there?

Thanks,
