kernel-doc: prevent duplicate description: output
Prevent duplicate output of a Description: section when there is a "blank" ("*") line between the initial function name/description line and the "Description:" header. Test case: drivers/scsi/scsi_devinfo.c::scsi_init_devinfo(). Rob Landley hit this while he was producing SCSI kernel-doc.
