From 891dcd2f7ab15e2aaad07f6925b3a53fd8d5c02f Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Randy Dunlap Date: Sat, 10 Feb 2007 01:45:53 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] [PATCH] kernel-doc: allow a little whitespace In kernel-doc syntax, be a little flexible: allow whitespace between a function parameter name and the colon that must follow it, such as: @pdev : PCI device to unplug (This allows lots of megaraid kernel-doc to work without tons of editing.)
