Subject: [PATCH 4/8] docs: kdoc: properly handle empty enum arguments
Date: Mon, 9 Mar 2026 17:47:55 +0100 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <4182bfb7e5f5b4bbaf05cee1bede691e56247eaf.1773074166.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1773074166.git.mchehab+huawei@kernel.org>
Depending on how the enum proto is written, a comma at the end
may incorrectly make kernel-doc parse an arg like " ".
Strip spaces before checking if arg is empty.
