Subject: [PATCH v3 1/5] memblock tests: update style of comments for memblock_add_*() functions
Date:   Fri, 22 Apr 2022 08:32:58 -0500
Message-Id: <2ea997e7b5c4737d674a2e5d9288938d557cb0c3.1650633253.git.remckee0@gmail.com>

Update comments in memblock_add_*() functions to match the style used
in tests/alloc_*.c by rewording to make the expected outcome more apparent
and, if more than one memblock is involved, adding a visual of the
memory blocks.
