drm/doc: Update styleguide 

The new cool is &struct foo (kernel-doc now copes with linebreaks),
and structure members should be referenced using &foo.bar.

@ -23,13 +23,12 @@ For consistency this documentation uses American English. Abbreviations
are written as all-uppercase, for example: DRM, KMS, IOCTL, CRTC, and so
on. To aid in reading, documentations make full use of the markup
characters kerneldoc provides: @parameter for function parameters,
@member for structure members, &structure to reference structures and
function() for functions. These all get automatically hyperlinked if
kerneldoc for the referenced objects exists. When referencing entries in
function vtables please use ->vfunc(). Note that kerneldoc does not
support referencing struct members directly, so please add a reference
to the vtable struct somewhere in the same paragraph or at least
section.
@member for structure members (within the same structure), &struct structure to
reference structures and function() for functions. These all get automatically
hyperlinked if kerneldoc for the referenced objects exists. When referencing
entries in function vtables (and structure members in general) please use
&vtable_name.vfunc. Unfortunately this does not yet yield a direct link to the
member, only the structure.
Except in special situations (to separate locked from unlocked variants)
locking requirements for functions aren't documented in the kerneldoc.
