Sorry to nit pick on this but the comment style should be // here IMHO
This is what Linus requested, e.g.:

> +// SPDX-License-Identifier: GPL-2.0

For reference, the doc is being written:Thomas (tglx) has already
submitted a first series of doc patches a few weeks ago. And AFAIK he
might be working on posting the updates soon, whenever his real time
clock yields a few cycles away from real time coding work ;)

See also these discussions with Linus [1][2][3], Thomas[4] and Greg[5]
on this and mostly related topics, where you will see Linus rationale
for the C++ comment stylle
