Documentation/CodingStyle:

|                Chapter 8: Commenting

...
|
|Linux style for comments is the C89 "/* ... */" style.
|Don't use C99-style "// ..." comments.

So how about:

/*
 * MCI (SD/MMC)
 * det_pin, wp_pin and vcc_pin are not connected
 */
static struct at91_mmc_data __initdata ek_mmc_data = {
	.slot_b         = 1,
	.wire4          = 1,
};
