scripts/kernel-doc: Add missing close-paren in c:function directives
When kernel-doc generates a 'c:function' directive for a function one of whose arguments is a function pointer, it fails to print the close-paren after the argument list of the function pointer argument. For instance: long work_on_cpu(int cpu, long (*fn) (void *, void * arg) in driver-api/basics.html is missing a ')' separating the "void *" of the 'fn' arguments from the ", void * arg" which is an argument to work_on_cpu(). Add the missing close-paren, so that we render the prototype correctly: long work_on_cpu(int cpu, long (*fn)(void *), void * arg) (Note that Sphinx stops rendering a space between the '(fn*)' and the '(void *)' once it gets something that's syntactically valid.)
