Seems that there is some kind of controversy between different maintainers. I
did in that way because I was complained to use the c-style on other patches,
and seems, that putting everything as // is Linus Torvalds' preferred style:

https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/25/133

I don't mind to change if the c-style is preferred by the maintainer (others
prefer the c++ style) but I think that would be good get an agreement between
subsystems maintainers and document properly.

Best regards,
 Enric
