[PATCH] virtio: document @vaddr in virtqueue_map_free_coherent kernel-doc comment
Posted by Sukrut Heroorkar 3 months, 1 week ago
Building with W=1 reports:
Warning: drivers/virtio/virtio_ring.c:3174 function parameter 'vaddr'
not described in 'virtqueue_map_free_coherent'

The @vaddr parameter was introduced when virtqueue_map_free_coherent
was added in order to provide map operations to virtio device, but it
was never documented. Document @vaddr to silence this warning.

Fixes: bee8c7c24b73 ("virtio: introduce map ops in virtio core")

I picked a different version that fixed a couple of other
issues as well, but thanks!
