Message-ID: <488CBA8B.8070307@nixpanic.net>
Date:	Sun, 27 Jul 2008 20:12:27 +0200
From:	Niels de Vos <niels@...panic.net>
To:	linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org
Subject: [PATCH] Remove newline from the description of module parameters

Some module parameters with only one line have the '\n' at the end of
the description. This is not needed nor wanted as after the
description the type (i.e. int) is followed by a newline.

Some modules contain a multi-line description, these are not affected
by this patch.
