https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240327044649.9199-1-rdunlap@infradead.org/
which seems to not yet been pulled into mm-unstable should fix the
following warnings:

include/linux/slab.h:730: warning: Function parameter or struct member
'_n' not described in 'kcalloc'
include/linux/slab.h:730: warning: Function parameter or struct member
'_size' not described in 'kcalloc'
include/linux/slab.h:730: warning: Function parameter or struct member
'_flags' not described in 'kcalloc'
include/linux/slab.h:730: warning: Excess function parameter 'n'
description in 'kcalloc'
include/linux/slab.h:730: warning: Excess function parameter 'size'
description in 'kcalloc'
include/linux/slab.h:730: warning: Excess function parameter 'flags'
description in 'kcalloc'

And https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240326054149.2121-1-rdunlap@infradead.org/
should handle the _noprof warnings. I can see this patch in
mm-unstable and running "make htmldocs" in mm-unstable does not show
the _noprof warnings anymore. Please let me know if I should try some
other command to reproduce these.
Thanks,
Suren.
