I think that all of these are false positives:

WARNING: drivers/pci/msi/api.c:102 duplicate section name 'Return'
WARNING: mm/damon/core.c:1356 duplicate section name 'Return'
WARNING: drivers/gpu/drm/drm_atomic_helper.c:3458 duplicate section name 'Return'

Some things are just messy:
WARNING: include/linux/w1.h:115 duplicate section name 'Return'
WARNING: include/linux/w1.h:115 duplicate section name 'Return'


It appears that looking for "Return[s]:" applies to structs (maybe to
everything?). Is that fixable (without rewriting the entire parser)?
(i915_drm.h above is also a warning about a struct.)
