    I'd like to delay this conversion until we have a better solution than
    simply throwing away the detail that is currently available in the
    existing comments.  I looked briefly at the kernel thread you cited,
    and noticed that someone asked why the kernel developers aren't just
    using doxygen.  Is anyone familiar with this tool?  Regardless, it
    seems that we can wait a little bit for this new support to handle
    function prototypes in a manner closer to ordinary kernel functions.
