Hi Mateusz, Jacob, all,
If you need to respin this for some reason, please consider updating
the Kernel doc for the following to include a short description.
Else, please consider doing so as a follow-up
* struct virtchnl_ptp_caps
* struct virtchnl_phc_time
Likewise as a follow-up, as it was not introduced by this patch, for:
* virtchnl_vc_validate_vf_msg
Flagged by kernel-doc -none -Wall
The above not withstanding, this looks good to me.
