Hi Markus!
That's true. But the content inside the comment does not follow
kernel-doc format.
For e.g., try running kernel-doc -none/man/rst on the above file in
the example("sound/pci/ctxfi/ctresource.c").
The starting 2-3 lines in files generally do not contain any
struct/enum/function, etc. declaration.

Thanks
Aditya
