[Qemu-devel] [PATCH v2] qdev: Clean up around properties

[Cao jin]

include:
1. remove unnecessary declaration of static function
2. fix inconsistency between comment and function name, and typo OOM->QOM
2. update comments of functions, use uniform format(GTK-Doc style)

Signed-off-by: Cao jin <address@hidden>
---
changelog:
1. Use uniform comment format. (Markus)
2. Update function comments. (Markus & Paolo)

comments of qdev_add_legacy_property maybe need polishing, Maintainer who will
take this patch can touch that comment directly:)
