Struct members may be marked as private by using
	/* private: */
before them, as noted in Documentation/kernel-doc-nano-HOWTO.txt:

<quote>
Inside a struct description, you can use the "private:" and "public:"
comment tags.  Structure fields that are inside a "private:" area
are not listed in the generated output documentation.

Example:

/**
 * struct my_struct - short description
 * @a: first member
 * @b: second member
 *
 * Longer description
 */
struct my_struct {
    int a;
    int b;
/* private: */
    int c;
};
