Subject: [PATCH] ecryptfs: fix incorrect kernel-doc comment syntax in files

The opening comment mark '/**' is used for kernel-doc comments.
There are files in fs/encrypts which follows this syntax, but the content
inside does not comply with kernel-doc.
This causes unexpected warnings from kernel-doc.

E.g., header comment for fs/ecryptfs/dentry.c follows kernel-doc syntax
for comments(i.e., '/**'), but the content inside does not.

Running kernel-doc -none on fs/ecryptfs/dentry.c causes these
unexpected warnings:
"warning: Incorrect use of kernel-doc format:  * ecryptfs_d_revalidate - revalidate an ecryptfs dentry"
"warning: Function parameter or member 'dentry' not described in 'ecryptfs_d_revalidate'"
"warning: Function parameter or member 'flags' not described in 'ecryptfs_d_revalidate'"
"warning: expecting prototype for eCryptfs(). Prototype was for ecryptfs_d_revalidate() instead"

Similarly for other files too.

Provide a simple fix by replacing such occurrences with general comment
format, i.e. '/*', to prevent kernel-doc from parsing it.
