Imo doing kerneldoc for simple static functions doesn't add too much
value. The interesting stuff tends to be functions used all over the place
(and hence exported to files) and used to implement core driver
infrastructure.

Comments always have a cost attached since we need to keep them
up-to-date, and my impression here is that these are just stating the
obvious. Most of the kerneldoc for shared functions is also pretty much
stating the obvious, but it helps to clarify the exact semantics of a
function. Which is much more important for something shared than something
used in just one 1 file at 2 places.

If there's something tricky it's much better to have a comment right next
to the tricky code in-line, with no other fluff to distract people.

Here imo the important bit is that cursor_set will eat the reference for
the passed-in obj, for both the success and failure case.

With that addressed the patch is Reviewed-by: Daniel Vetter <daniel.vetter at ffwll.ch>
