I meant to reply to this earlier. Yes, that command certainly works and
I do use it often.

But for testing this patch, I added some (scant) IUCV documentation to the
Documentation/ docbook. The patch that I used it attached.
If you are interested in adding it to the kernel tree, it needs some wordsmithing.

You should see one kernel-doc warning with this patch:
Documentation/networking/iucv:35: ../net/iucv/iucv.c:1918: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expecting "(" in parameters. [error at 12]
  void __exit iucv_exit (void)
  ------------^

I have sent a kernel-doc patch for that:
