NIT: Shouldn't you use /* ... */ for multi-line comments?

There's no requirement to do so, and IIRC even Torvalds prefers '//'
comments for multi-line things these days.

Also, this is an assembly code, not C; '//' is the actual A64 assembler comment syntax so is arguably more appropriate here in spite of being moot thanks to preprocessing.

Robin.
