Seems that there is some kind of controversy between different maintainers. I did in that way because I was complained to use the c-style on other patches, and seems, that putting everything as // is Linus Torvalds' preferred style:
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/11/25/133
I don't mind to change if the c-style is preferred by the maintainer (others prefer the c++ style) but I think that would be good get an agreement between subsystems maintainers and document properly.
Best regards, Enric
