Hi,

Can we just remove all misused "/**" comments in vfio.c until
someone cares enough to use proper kernel-doc there?

Subject: [PATCH] vfio/vfio: remove all kernel-doc notation

vfio.c abuses (misuses) "/**", which indicates the beginning of
kernel-doc notation in the kernel tree. This causes a bunch of
kernel-doc complaints about this source file, so quieten all of
them by changing all "/**" to "/*".
