    Ian,

    There are a number of drivers that still need the comedi comment block
    converted to the normal CodingStyle format for multi-line comments.

    And, as you mentioned to me before, all of the ADDI-DATA drivers
    are missing the comedi comment block:

    But, this is a great start to getting them cleaned up.
