Make pdfdocs/psdocs/htmldoc fail in 2.5.54

Fixed in linus-latest.
Note that the changes to kernel-doc make it spit out warnings for all parameters in a funtion which is not documented.
A better solution might be to spit out warnings for parameters documented but not present.
My perl skills did not suffer for this.

The real errors were in one .tmpl files and one .c file, The other changes in kernel-doc just helped me identifying the root cause.

Any reason why you didn't do this yourself, except for the general lazyness of a programmer?

Long time ago I failed trying to do so.
So I got the impression only the owner could do so. But I could see someone beat me on it with those - thanks.
