I can switch it to C-style in the example, but we are going with Linux
Coding Style which soon will allow // judging by Linus' statements.

Yep. I'll use this, unless checkpatch complains about undocumented
compatible. :) This allows to show the child node.

I think I used everywhere double-spaces. At least this was my intention,
so I will fix single-spaces :)
