Note that this should be a simple single line, function name and short summary; anything more detailed goes into a description after the variables.

If you can do a quick repost with these little function header comment bits tweaked, I'm willing to ACK this patch and I think we'll be ready for Jeff to include it into his tree. sln -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majord...@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
