Thanks for the feedback!  I'm glad I managed git send-email without
breaking up something, so no offense taken that the patch got rejected.

Thank god! I am working on a kmodule, and the code looks awful that way.
I think I have to dig deeper into CodingStyle.txt

Now I am confused, as I understand multi-line comments should start
every line but the first with a *.
Anyway, one should commit code before bothering about comments, so I
silence myself here.

Printed.

Again, thanks for the feedback! Will work on that and come back later
when I found something in the kernel to work on or when my module leaves
design-phase.

regards,
Dan
