Ok.

It seems that Linus has changed his opinion on C99 commenting style,
from "it's not real C" to "I prefer it":
https://lore.kernel.org/patchwork/patch/852060/
Yes, this is mostly about the SPDX commenting style, but Linus seems to
be expressing a general preference towards "//" style comments over
"/* */" comments, especially for new comments.
Specifically see replies #14 and #18, especially #18 where the
discussion moves towards trailing-line comments for structure members.
