  Recent versions of doxygen (1.9.4 and newer) complain about
the None return types for functions that don't return anything.

Fixes the following build error:
[..]
Generating doc/api/doxygen with a custom command
FAILED: doc/api/html
/usr/bin/python3 /path/to/doc/api/generate_doxygen.py doc/api/html
  /usr/bin/doxygen doc/api/doxy-api.conf
/root/dpdk/lib/eal/include/rte_bitmap.h:324: error: found documented
  return type for rte_bitmap_prefetch0 that does not return anything
  (warning treated as error, aborting now)
[..]

Tested with doxygen versions (1.9.1, 1.9.4, 1.8.17).
