Why 2 different comment styles? The previous comment's style is actually
preferred in the kernel.
I just tried to follow the styles of the existing comments. Apparently
the first style is used for multi-paragraph comments, while the other
one is used for single-paragraph one.
Nevertheless, only the 1st comment is formatted in the preferred manner;
see Documentation/CodingStyle, chapter 8.
