Subject: [PATCH] bcache: Fix compiler warnings

It fixes the following compiler warnings by
using "/*" instead of "/**" in the comments

drivers/md/bcache/request.c:309: warning:
Function parameter or struct member 'bch_data_insert'
not described in 'CLOSURE_CALLBACK'

drivers/md/bcache/request.c:309: warning: expecting
prototype for bch_data_insert(). Prototype was for
CLOSURE_CALLBACK() instead

Hello,
These warnings happen using GCC compiler the command 'make W=1'.

Thank you.

Hello,
I have realized that even though this change could fix the warning, it
is not the correct fix to it, because it breaks the format of kernel
function comments.

So please discard the patch.
Thank you.
