[PATCH] scripts/kernel-doc and comma separated members.

From: "Alexey Dobriyan"
Date: Sun Apr 18 2004 - 05:51:13 EST


This patch teaches scripts/kernel-doc to print descriptions
of comma separated variables correctly instead of ignoring
them.

Tested on 'make pdfdocs' and 'scripts/kernel-doc -text test.c'.
