This actually isn't a misc driver.  From the help, it's "Linux tty line
discipline"

But I can turn it off.

Could you please show me how and what you are looking for?  You pointed
out a similar issue using a different comment style, despite that at
least I made it a point to maintain a consistent comment style
throughout the code in the file.  So I'm not quite sure what is desired.
Thanks, I appreciate this.
