[PATCH] kernel-doc: extend $type_param to match members referenced by pointer

From: Mike Rapoport
Date: Wed Nov 07 2018 - 10:00:21 EST


Currently, function parameter description can match '@type.member'
expressions but fails to match '@type->member'.
Extend the $type_param regex to allow matching both
