How to format kernel-doc comments
---------------------------------

The opening comment mark ``/**`` is used for kernel-doc comments. The
``kernel-doc`` tool will extract comments marked this way. The rest of
the comment is formatted like a normal multi-line comment with a column
of asterisks on the left side, closing with ``*/`` on a line by itself.

See Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst for more details.
Hope that can help you.
