Let's move it all the way to the top, right after header includes, so
we don't have to move it again.
+/**
+ * Convert from a Frame Preemption Additional Fragment size in bytes
+ * to a multiplier. The multiplier is defined as:
+ *	"A 2-bit integer value used to indicate the minimum size of
+ *	non-final fragments supported by the receiver on the given port
+ *	associated with the local System. This value is expressed in units
+ *	of 64 octets of additional fragment length."
+ *	Equivalent to `30.14.1.7 aMACMergeAddFragSize` from the IEEE 802.3-2018
+ *	standard.
Please double check the correct format for kdoc:

https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/doc-guide/kernel-doc.html

This comment should also be next to the definition of the function, 
not in the header.
+ * @frag_size: minimum non-final fragment size in bytes
+ *
+ * Returns the multiplier.
