Might want to run this through kernel-doc. I'm pretty sure it wants
macro comments to be formatted like function comments. ie:
/**
* lockdep_set_novalidate_class - Disable lock order checks on this lock.
* @lock: The lock to disable order checks for.
*
* Lockdep will still record that this lock has been taken, and print held
* instances when dumping locks.

#define lockdep_set_novalidate_class(lock) \
lockdep_set_class_and_name(lock, &__lockdep_no_validate__, #lock)
Yes, that is true. It is not in the proper kernel-doc format. Either use
the proper format or use a single "*" instead.
