Nah, it's not an exported function, so I didn't want to do a formal
kernel-doc thing. I can make it proper kernel-doc if you insist, but I
don't think the whole "current buffer position", "end of output
buffer", "new buffer position" makes sense outside the context of
vsprintf.c with its own slightly peculiar way of doing things.
