Subject: [PATCH] ARM: mach-sa1100: fix incorrect kernel-doc comment syntax in file
Date:   Wed, 31 Mar 2021 02:14:07 +0530
Message-Id: <20210330204407.25690-1-yashsri421@gmail.com>
Precedence: bulk

The opening comment mark '/**' is used for highlighting the beginning of
kernel-doc comments.
The header for arch/arm/mach-sa1100/jornada720_ssp.c follows this syntax,
but the content inside does not comply with kernel-doc.

This line was probably not meant for kernel-doc parsing, but is parsed
due to the presence of kernel-doc like comment syntax(i.e, '/**'), which
causes these warnings from kernel-doc:
"warning: Function parameter or member 'jornada_ssp_lock' not described in 'DEFINE_SPINLOCK'"
"warning: expecting prototype for mac(). Prototype was for DEFINE_SPINLOCK() instead"

Provide a simple fix by replacing this occurrence with general comment
format, i.e. '/*', to prevent kernel-doc from parsing it.
