Perhaps we could yeah.  Problem is, there are just three hyphens (one in
include/hw/stream.h, two in include/qemu/host-utils.h) so that would be
quite a big patch.  We could do that as we add kernel-doc directive, if
you prefer that, or do it in one shot after committing this series, or
just live with the two lines changed above.
