[PATCH] kernel-doc: fix for vunmap function prototype

From: Randy Dunlap
Date: Wed Feb 06 2008 - 21:42:18 EST


From: Randy Dunlap <randy.dunlap@xxxxxxxxxx>

Fix kernel-doc function prototype parsing for vunmap() in -mm kernel:
(but merge to mainline, please)

Allow more than one '*' before the function name.

Error(linux-2.6.24-mm1//mm/vmalloc.c:438): cannot understand prototype: 'struct page **vunmap(const void *addr) '
