[PATCH v3 2/6] sysctl: Add kdoc comments to do_proc_do{u}intvec_minmax_conv_param
From: Waiman Long
Date: Thu Mar 01 2018 - 12:45:16 EST
Kdoc comments are added to the do_proc_dointvec_minmax_conv_param
and do_proc_douintvec_minmax_conv_param structures thare are used
internally for range checking.
The error codes returned by proc_dointvec_minmax() and
proc_douintvec_minmax() are also documented.
