Using tables for such list is a bad idea.
The source code is constrained in a small column,
and the HTML rendering is constrained by the page width.
I recommend switching to the definition list syntax
which has a nice rendering for such definitions.

Example:
``BPHY_INTR_MLOCK_DISABLE``
   Disable memory locking in BPHY environment.
