Without that, Sphinx will warn and may produce something unexpected.

Yet, right now, kernel-doc is not prepared for the above change.
When kernel-doc finds a blank line, it just assumes that the
remaining content is part of the description. That is due to some
laziness on its parser.

This is fixed by patch 20/35 on this series:

Subject: [PATCH 20/35] docs: scripts/kernel-doc: accept blank lines on parameter description

If this patch is applied after 20/25, the output should produce the
correct result:

Thanks,
Mauro
