Hi,

The patch description can be improved, like:
"Stephen Rothwell reported htmldocs warning when merging net-next:

Documentation/networking/kapi:26: net/core/skbuff.c:780: WARNING: Error in declarator or parameters
Invalid C declaration: Expecting "(" in parameters. [error at 19]
  void __fix_address kfree_skb_reason (struct sk_buff *skb, enum skb_drop_reason reason)
  -------------------^

Add __fix_address keyword to c_id_attributes array in conf.py to fix the
warning."

So next time when you spot documentation warnings like above, specify the
exact warning in the patch description. This will help reviewers what warning
the patch is fixing.

Also, don't forget to add Link tag, like:
Link: https://lore.kernel.org/linux-next/20220825154105.534d78ab@canb.auug.org.au/

Otherwise, the warning disappeared on my htmldocs build, thanks.
