Subject: [PATCH] ASoC: omap-twl4030: fix kernel-doc syntax in file header

The opening comment mark '/**' is used for highlighting the beginning of
kernel-doc comments.
The header for include/linux/platform_data/omap-twl4030.h follows this
syntax, but the content inside does not comply with kernel-doc.

This line was probably not meant for kernel-doc parsing, but is parsed
due to the presence of kernel-doc like comment syntax(i.e, '/**'), which
causes unexpected warning from kernel-doc:
warning: expecting prototype for omap(). Prototype was for _OMAP_TWL4030_H_() instead

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