I'm not sure we want "The start byte is defined as" in the brief
description. Needs a blank line between the brief and full description
(or hoist the argument descriptions up to match the idiomatic
form for a kernel-doc comment in the docs if you prefer).

Likewise I think there is no need for "According to the datasheet..." to be
included in the brief description.
