Subject: [net-next 2/3] fm10k: fix incorrect warning for function prototype

From: Jacob Keller <jacob.e.keller@...el.com>

Recent kernels now complain about incorrect function prototype comments,
in order to ensure comments are accurate to the function. However, it
incorrectly associates the comment above the fm10k_pci_tbl[] as
a function header comment. Fix this by removing the extra "*" in the
comment. This normally indicates that the function is a doxygen style
function header comment.

Once removed, the logic no longer kicks in and the following warning is
fixed:

  warning: cannot understand function prototype: 'const struct pci_device_id fm10k_pci_tbl[] = '
