Noted and fixed.

Well, to be fair, most comments in the existing code base actually use the style
I employed (in fact, I was copying it), so it seems like a blurry line at least.

                /*
                 * If we need to find a source address for this traffic,
                 * we check the result if it meets requirement of the rule.
                 */
-----8<----
        /*
         * If FIB_RULE_FIND_SADDR is set and we do not have a
         * source address for the traffic, we defer check for
         * source address.
         */
-----8<----
        /* The lock is not required here, the list in unreacheable
         * at the moment this function is called */
-----8<----
                        /* compatibility: if the mark value is non-zero all bits
                         * are compared unless a mask is explicitly specified.
                         */

                /*
                 * There are unresolved goto rules in the list, check if
                 * any of them are pointing to this new rule.
