From 1d338b86e17d87215cf57b1ad1d13b2afe582d33 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab Date: Thu, 19 Apr 2018 12:28:07 -0400 Subject: [PATCH] media: v4l2-compat-ioctl32: better document the code This file does a lot of non-trivial struff. Document it using kernel-doc markups where needed and improve the comments inside do_video_ioctl().
