No big deal here, but I try to make subject lines and commit logs a
little more specific. "Fix doc warning" doesn't give any real
information, but something like "Add num_mws kernel-doc" would.

No need to repeat "pci-epf-vntb" in the subject; one mention is
enough.
OK.

v1 -> v2:
Based on latest commit.
What is "latest commit"? A SHA1 would make this unambiguous.
It's 1b929c02afd3 Linux 6.2-rc1.
When I make v1, it also has warning in comment of epf_ntb_config_sspad_bar_clear(),
so I fix it in v1, but it was fixed later, so remove the fix code in v2.

This patch happens to apply cleanly on 1b929c02afd3 ("Linux 6.2-rc1"),
but I think the hunk gets applied in the wrong place.

8e4bfbe644a6 ("PCI: endpoint: pci-epf-vntb: fix error handle in
epf_ntb_mw_bar_init()") added a "num_mws" parameter to
epf_ntb_mw_bar_clear() but failed to add kernel-doc for num_mws.

This patch adds kernel-doc for num_mws on *epf_ntb_mw_bar_init()*,
which doesn't have a num_mws parameter, so after applying it, I see
*two* kernel-doc warnings:

$ make W=1 drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-vntb.o
drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-vntb.c:602: warning: Excess function parameter 'num_mws' description in 'epf_ntb_mw_bar_init'
drivers/pci/endpoint/functions/pci-epf-vntb.c:658: warning: Function parameter or member 'num_mws' not described in 'epf_ntb_mw_bar_clear'
Sorry, I sent a wrong patch, the comment should be added to epf_ntb_mw_bar_clear().
I will send a new version later.

Thanks,
Yang
