Subject: [PATCH] linux-next :cfg80211: Fix warnings while make xmldocs

During 4.19-rc1 merger period, 38cb87ee47fb8 was merged.
In the patch, one of an argument "*ptr" was removed from
the function. But in the comment of the function "@ptr"
still exist. Which causes 109 lines of following warning
during "make xmldocs"

./include/net/cfg80211.h:4869: warning: Excess function
 parameter 'ptr' description in 'reg_query_regdb_wmm'

After apply this patch and make xmldocs does not show
this message any more.
