Subject: Re: [PATCH 1/3] staging: pi433: Style fix - align block comments

Hi Dan,

when I started with the RFM69CW about two years ago (at the beginning not as a
driver, but everything within the applicaton) I kind of automatically produced a
list of all registers of the chip (most probably by importing and reorganizing
the datasheet in Excel).
Everytime I need to touch a register, I started to crosscheck the names and
masks and took them out of comment.

All registers, I did not touch the last two years are from this autogeneration
and commented. There is stil a lot of functionality of the chip, that's not
supported (or not needed) by the driver.

Cheers,

Marcus
