The comment added by this patch is wrong. That is easy to see by having
a look at the function name and function description.

In case anyone is wondering why this kerneldoc warning was not addressed
by commit 0c7f821: that patch was prepared against kernel v3.12-rc7 and
the warning reported above is new in kernel v3.14-rc1.
