[PATCH v2 16/24] seqlock: fix two kernel-doc warnings

[Mauro Carvalho Chehab]

Right now, seqloc.h produces two kernel-doc warnings:

	./include/linux/seqlock.h:181: error: Cannot parse typedef!
	WARNING: kernel-doc './scripts/kernel-doc -rst -enable-lineno ./include/linux/seqlock.h' failed with return code 1

Those are due to two things:

1. the kernel-doc markup syntax doesn't recognize "typedef"
   expression at the markup. Both functions and typedefs
   use the same notation:

	/**
	 * foo - some bar description
	 */
  or
	/**
	 * foo() - some bar description
	 */

2. kernel-doc markups require a function or typedef prototype,
   in order to get the type of each argument. This is also
   common for other code documentation markkup languages, like
   doxygen.

On other words, a valid notation for describing those macros
would be:

	 /**
	  * seqcount_LOCKNAME_t() - sequence counter with LOCKNAME associated
	  * @seqcount:  The real sequence counter
	  * @lock:      Pointer to the associated lock
	  *
	  * <some description>
	  */
	#if 0 /* kernel-doc needs a function or typedef prototype */
	void seqcount_LOCKNAME_t(seqcount_##lockname##_t *seqcount, locktype *lock) {}
	#endif

Alternatively, the description of those arguments should be added
as a DOC: block.

Yet, from changeset a28e884b966e ("seqlock: Fix multiple kernel-doc warnings"),
it sounds that, on this file, it is preferred to just convert the
kernel-doc markups into simple comments.
