Subject: Re: [PATCH V4 00/17] ARM EFI stub common code

A general note:

In multiline comments like:

/* Relocate a kernel image, either compressed or uncompressed.
 * In the ARM64 case, all kernel images are currently
 * uncompressed, and as such when we relocate it we need to
 * allocate additional space for the BSS segment. Any low
 * memory that this function should avoid needs to be
 * unavailable in the EFI memory map, as if the preferred
 * address is not available the lowest available address will
 * be used.
 */

Please have a blank line at the beginning:

/*
 * Relocate a kernel image, either compressed or uncompressed.
 * In the ARM64 case, all kernel images are currently
 * uncompressed, and as such when we relocate it we need to
 * allocate additional space for the BSS segment. Any low

 * unavailable in the EFI memory map, as if the preferred
 * address is not available the lowest available address will
 * be used.
 */

Also, if this a comment at the head of a function, have a blank line
before the comment.
