Several functions in admin-state.c were missing parameter descriptions
leading to multiple kernel-doc warnings during build.

Update the affected comments by adding missing @state, @operation,
@waiter, @initiator, @result, and other parameter descriptions.

No functional changes.

I'm ambivalent about some of the new comments. But there are also a lot more kerneldoc warnings in the dm-vdo target, and now that you've pointed them out I think I'll try to fix them all up myself. It may take me a day or two to get the patch out.

Thanks for bringing this up.
