Hmm... considering that you decided to create an index file for the
endpoint, with the same title, I would just remove this from here.

I would, instead, promote this as a sub-level. E. g. something like:

devm_pci_epc_create()/pci_epc_create()
......................................

(if you do that, you'll need to also promote some similar function
documentation within this doc)

Better to add a blank line between those two lines. There's no sense
(IMHO) on using bold font to the first line here.
