The best would be to use: vimc_streamer_s_stream(). Kernel-doc already
handles it (don't remember if it uses :c:func:, but I guess it does),
and this is the recommended way.

Anyway, there's a patch under discussion right now at Linux docs ML that 
will auto-replace these to :c:func`` automatically, not only on kernel-doc
tags, but also within the .rst files. It should be able to recognize
existing :c:func: tags, so no harm done if it is there somewhere.

Thanks,
