I pushed a documentation fix to emacs-26:
commit 98e5fb9bf3b49bea82a4d3e38be20415bd7f7684
Author: Charles A. Roelli <charles@aurox.ch>
Date: Mon Jan 15 21:14:05 2018 +0100
Remove incorrect documentation in comint.el
* lisp/comint.el (comint-interrupt-subjob, comint-kill-subjob)
(comint-quit-subjob, comint-stop-subjob): Remove incorrect
documentation. (Bug#30079)
If there's any interest in reinstating the old, documented (but
unimplemented) behavior in the master branch, please reopen.
