Looks like there is no kdoc specific format for #define's
(Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst), which is disappointing, I
really hoped this could be brought to the developer's attention this
way.

But that's not a big deal. Jonathan, if you don't mind, you may just
drop that extra start s|/**|/*| to make the htmldocs target happy
again.

Thanks,
