I saw that... but looking at what's there in C code:

hohndel@rrmbpvm:~/src/linux[VMware-license-cleanup]
$ git grep SPDX | grep \.c: | cut -d: -f2 | sort | grep ^// | wc
   5260   10519  142020
hohndel@rrmbpvm:~/src/linux[VMware-license-cleanup]
$ git grep SPDX | grep \.c: | cut -d: -f2 | sort | grep ^/\* | wc
   5397   10792  145680

(ok, that's close...)
But if you do the same analysis for header files...

hohndel@rrmbpvm:~/src/linux[VMware-license-cleanup]
$ git grep SPDX | grep \.h: | cut -d: -f2 | sort | grep ^// | wc
    549    1098   14823
hohndel@rrmbpvm:~/src/linux[VMware-license-cleanup]
$ git grep SPDX | grep \.h: | cut -d: -f2 | sort | grep ^/\* | wc
   7981   15962  215364

So a majority seems to go with the "more Linux C file style" /* as comment
marker... which is why I chose that...
