Right now, if one of the following headers end with a '::', the
kernel-doc script will do the wrong thing:
description|context|returns?|notes?|examples?
The real issue is with examples, as people could try to write
something like:
example::
/* Some C code */
and this won't be properly evaluated. So, improve the regex
to not catch '\w+::' regex for the above identifiers.
