Subject: [PATCH v2 4/5] Add kernel doc for the completion, fix kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt

This patch adds kernel doc for the completion feature. It is in kernel/sched.c
and include/linux/completion.h.

An error in the split-man.pl PERL snippet in kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt is
also fixed.

My name is Kevin Diggs and I approve this patch.
