Agreed, but there are already some other descriptions over there that have
multiple lines[1]:

Anyway, on this specific case, I guess it can be easily shorten to
80 columns without losing anything. Would that work for you?

	/**
	 * cpu_util - Estimates the amount of capacity of a CPU used by CFS tasks.

[1] like this one:

	/**
	 * calculate_imbalance - Calculate the amount of imbalance present within the
	 *			 groups of a given sched_domain during load balance.
	 * @env: load balance environment
	 * @sds: statistics of the sched_domain whose imbalance is to be calculated.
