kernel-doc parser mishandles declarations split into lines
Reported by Johannes Berg [1].  Problem here: function
process_proto_type() concatenates the striped lines of declaration
without any whitespace. A one-liner of::
 struct something {
       struct foo
       bar;
       };
has to be::
 struct something {struct foo bar;};
Without the patching process_proto_type(), the result missed the space
between 'foo' and 'bar'::
 struct something {struct foobar;};
Bugfix of process_proto_type() brings next error when blank lines
between enum declaration::
 warning: Enum value ' ' not described in enum 'foo'
Problem here: dump_enum() does not strip leading whitespaces from
the concatenated string (with the new additional space from
process_proto_type).
