Subject[PATCH] checkpatch: add check for NONNETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE
Date
NETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE is supported by checkpatch but there
doesn't seem to be any check for the standard block comment style.
Add support for NONNETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE to check for empty /*
on first line of non-networking block comments.
