Subject: docs: kdoc_output: don't use a different modulename for functions
X-Git-Url: http://git.ipfire.org/gitweb.cgi?a=commitdiff_plain;h=1a63342a2774c734b73841fdfa41cf4d8d58cd94;p=thirdparty%2Fkernel%2Flinux.git

docs: kdoc_output: don't use a different modulename for functions

It doesn't make much sense to have a different modulename just
for functions, but not for structs/enums/...

Use the same header everywere.
