it's not about my or your preference. It's about what we all do in the 
kernel, documented in Documentation/CodingStyle:

| The preferred style for long (multi-line) comments is:
|
|        /*
|         * This is the preferred style for multi-line
|         * comments in the Linux kernel source code.
|         * Please use it consistently.
|         *
|         * Description:  A column of asterisks on the left side,
|         * with beginning and ending almost-blank lines.
|         */
