Hi,

is there a specific reason why the ctags make target is compiled without
using '--kinds-c=+p'? Maybe it would make sense to (optionally) include
that in the Makefile?

I personally find it useful to jump to the header where a function is
declared to view the documentary comment. Or am I missing another option
to quickly get there?

Regards,
Philip

To answer the first half of this, it's whatever the last person to use
ctags related things was.  Perhaps looking at and syncing that part of
the kernel tree would be helpful?
