Thanks.

I guess my only real concern about this test is
there are ~15000 instances of this in the tree.

Do maintainers care if comments are formatted

/*
* [multiple...]
* line comment
*/

vs

/* [multiple...]
* line comment
*/

enough to want others to submit patches
changing from the latter style?

The reason the networking checking exists is
because David Miller, the primary networking
maintainer, was constantly telling others to
resubmit patches to his preferred style.

I doubt there's another maintainer that cares
that much one way or another.

I don't.

Any opinions from anyone else?
