Some such markups are invalid, as reported by Sphinx:
./Documentation/sound/kernel-api/writing-an-alsa-driver.rst:3317:
WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'snd_rawmidi_transmit*'
Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 20]

./Documentation/sound/kernel-api/writing-an-alsa-driver.rst:3917:
WARNING: Unparseable C cross-reference: 'copy_from/to_user'
Invalid C declaration: Expected end of definition. [error at 9]
copy_from/to_user
---------^
The first case seems to be better replaced by a literal.
For the second one, let's generate cross-references, by
spliting it in two.
