This seems to be at odds with the documentation in
Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst.

The warning refers to lines 543, 544 and 546.

543: *              Bits [23:16] are currently reserved for future use.
544: *              Bits [31:24] are reserved for defining generic
545: *                           PHY driver behavior.
546: * @irq: IRQ number of the PHY's interrupt (-1 if none)

This doesn't look quite right with the warning messages above, because
544 doesn't unindent, and I've checked net-next, net, and mainline
trees, and they're all the same.

So, I think we first need to establish exactly which lines you are
seeing this warning for before anyone can make a suggestion.

FTTP is here! 40Mbps down 10Mbps up. Decent connectivity at last!

They are not always precise.

Dear Russell

My configuration environment and operation steps are as follows：

[siyanteng@sterling]$ cd linux-next
[siyanteng@sterling]$ ./scripts/sphinx-pre-install
Detected OS: CentOS Linux release 8.5.2111.
Sphinx version: 2.4.4


All optional dependencies are met.
Needed package dependencies are met.
[siyanteng@sterling]$ . sphinx_2.4.4/bin/activate
(sphinx_2.4.4) [siyanteng@sterling]$ make cleandocs
(sphinx_2.4.4) [siyanteng@sterling]$ make htmldocs

Thanks，
Yanteng

Just a hint of kernel-doc comment format, which is not fully covered
in Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst.

Using bullet lists for bit fields is a reasonable approach,
I guess.

For bullet lists in ReST, which kernel-doc is based on, see
https://docutils.sourceforge.io/docs/ref/rst/restructuredtext.html#bullet-lists

Just my 2c.

Yeah! Thank you very much!

I think I can fix the following two warnings:

Documentation/networking/kapi:147: ./drivers/net/phy/phylink.c:1657:
WARNING: Unexpected indentation.
Documentation/networking/kapi:147: ./drivers/net/phy/phylink.c:1658:
WARNING: Block quote ends without a blank line; unexpected unindent.

I will send-email it  together in v2, Thank you very much!

Thanks,
Yanteng
