Place kdoc just above tpm_pcr_extend so it can be parsed
correctly.

I applied this although I edited the short description (stripped
away "/tpm-interface".

Put this to tpm_transmit_cmd only and refer to that from other functions
with "same as with tpm_transmit_cmd()" with parenthesis because that
marks in rst a link to that function.

And then tpm_transmit_cmd() will point to tpm_transmit() ? 
I'm not sure I'm happy about those links, rst is okay but after all  mostly we're just looking directly to the sources with a simple editor. 
Anyhow this patch is to resolve the kdoc syntax bug, the overhaul of the documentation can be built on top of it. 

Thanks

For tpm_transmit() those error codes don't apply. It never returns TPM
error codes.

Do you know how could I easily get the rendered output for this? If I do
make htmldocs. At least when I tried it, it generates only those kdoc
comments that are imported to the rst files (like I do with
tpm_vtmp_proxy).
