There are no doc syntax changes that I know of. This is not
new syntax. It has been around since 2014:
cbb4d3e6510b ("scripts/kernel-doc: handle object-like macros")


"define OBJ_LIKE_MACRO" is used 2 other times in include/drm/:

drm_fb_helper.h:

/**
* define DRM_FB_HELPER_DEFAULT_OPS - helper define for drm drivers
*
* Helper define to register default implementations of drm_fb_helper
* functions. To be used in struct fb_ops of drm drivers.
*/

drm_gem_vram_helper.h: (the file being patched here)

/**
* define DRM_GEM_VRAM_DRIVER - default callback functions for \
&struct drm_driver
*
* Drivers that use VRAM MM and GEM VRAM can use this macro to initialize
* &struct drm_driver with default functions.
*/
