As far as I can recall, nobody has ever complained about problems with
nested structure definitions like that; kernel-doc certainly isn't set
up to handle such a thing.  It could certainly be added, but it would
require somebody diving into that delightful code to do that work.  I
can't promise to be able to do that in the near future.

Sorry,
