Hi all,

After merging the mm tree, today's linux-next build (htmldocs) produced
these warnings:

include/linux/mm_types.h:482: warning: Function parameter or struct member '_usable_1' not described in 'folio'
include/linux/mm_types.h:482: warning: Function parameter or struct member '_mapcount_1' not described in 'folio'
include/linux/mm_types.h:482: warning: Function parameter or struct member '_refcount_1' not described in 'folio'

Introduced by commit

bbde3b621cf7 ("mm: let _folio_nr_pages overlay memcg_data in first tail page")

from the mm-unstable branch of the mm tree.

Hm, we also don't document other dummy placeholders like:

* _flags_1
* _head_1
* __page_1

So I assume there must be one way to silence these warnings, let me dig ...

Ah, likely because they are part of the "private:" section.
