That warning is likely by the following function comment:

/**
  * unplug_oldest_pwq - restart an oldest plugged pool_workqueue
  * @wq: workqueue_struct to be restarted
  *
  * pwq's are linked into wq->pwqs with the oldest first. For ordered
  * workqueues, only the oldest pwq is unplugged, the others are plugged to
  * suspend execution until the oldest one is drained. When this 
happens, the
  * next oldest one (first plugged pwq in iteration) will be unplugged to
  * restart work item execution to ensure proper work item ordering.
  *
  *    dfl_pwq --------------+     [P] - plugged
  *                          |
  *                          v
  *    pwqs -> A -> B [P] -> C [P] (newest)
  *            |    |        |
  *            1    3        5
  *            |    |        |
  *            2    4        6
  */

One possible solution is to take out one '*' of the leading "/**" so 
that it is not regarded as an inline documentation block. Any other 
suggestion is welcome.

Cheers,
Longman
