In Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst, section Highlights and cross-references:

``%CONST``
Name of a constant. (No cross-referencing, just formatting.)

So '%' before a constant value just helps with the generated formatting
of the output. It's just "prettier." No big deal.

Hi Bagas,

Thanks a lot for fixing these warnings. I compiled it and I can
confirm that the sparse warning is also fixed.
