I guess we need to teach the kernel-doc script about __private.
May be just a case of doing the same as done for __aligned, __packed etc.

Also curious why I've not seen warnings in the past about the masklength field
in the same structure.  I guess the test coverage has improved (or I missed
the reports!).

 So a 
   $members =~ s/\s*__private\s*\([^;]*\)/ /gos;

about here:

Jon, does that make sense to you?  

Completely untested as I'm on wrong computer at the moment and my approach
to these scripts is cut and paste a similar smelling line until it works ;)
