Sorry, my fault, the commit log used a wrong function name, it is cpulist_parse()
not cpumask_scnprntf. and find a new error in the comments: used a incorrect 
function name: cpulist_parse_user(), the correct one is cpulist_parse().
Fix it in updated patch.

Both errors appear in Rusty's commit 29c0177e6a4.

Subject: [PATCH] cpumask: cpulist_parse() comments correction

The function has no parameter @len, so need to remove it from
comments to avoid kernel-doc warning:

alexs@...ian:~/linux-next$ scripts/kernel-doc -man
include/linux/cpumask.h | split-man.pl /tmp/man
....
Warning(include/linux/cpumask.h:602): Excess function parameter 'len'
description in 'cpulist_parse'

and correct the function name in comments to cpulist_parse.
