In SGX driver the convention is:

* Return:
* - -ENODEV ...
* - -EINVAL ...

"Return:" because this is what kernel-nanodoc-HOWTO.txt suggests.

The dashes are recognized by Sphinx as list so each return code
gets a newline when processed through "make htmldocs". Otherwise,
you get a mess because newlines will be removed.

I don't actually have idea of '%' and neither see it in the kernel
documenation.
