[PATCH net-next] s390/ctcm: Convert fsm.h to proper kernel-doc format

Nagamani PV <[email protected]> Mon, 3 Aug 2026 20:27:36 +0200
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-s390,org.kernel.vger.netdev
Message-ID <[email protected]>
drivers/s390/net/fsm.h contains comments starting with '/**'
that don't follow kernel-doc syntax, triggering warnings when
running:

  scripts/kernel-doc -none -Wall drivers/s390/net/fsm*

Example warning:
Warning: drivers/s390/net/fsm.h:14 This comment starts with '/**', but isn't a kernel-doc comment. Refer to Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
 * Define this to get debugging messages.

Convert function declarations to proper kernel-doc format per
Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst. Change debug macros and
internal structure comments from '/**' to '/*' since they are
not part of the public API. Also add missing parameter name in
fsm_settimer() declaration to match the implementation. Remove
redundant extern keywords from all function declarations.

No functional change.
