Probably because it's a rare construct.

But looking closer at this, trying to understand why the simple test
using

  scripts/kernel-doc lib/crc32.c |man -l -

seemed to sort of work, I found that your main problem isn't really the
lack of kernel-doc support for array pointer parameters.  It's a simple
mismatch between the documented and the exported functions.

scripts/docproc will only generate docs for exported symbols.
lib/crc32.c has no documented *and* exported functions, and thats why
the output is empty.  The array pointer is a red herring.
