Ok, with linux-next I get the same thing:

~/linux/tmp/linux-next $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --strict drivers/staging/lustre/include/linux/lnet/api.h --types=c99_comments
Useless use of greediness modifier '+' in regex; marked by <-- HERE in m/(^\+.*) {8,8}+ <-- HERE \t/@./scripts/checkpatch.pl line 2358.
total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 0 checks, 220 lines checked

NOTE: Used message types: C99_COMMENTS

drivers/staging/lustre/include/linux/lnet/api.h has no obvious style problems and is ready for submission.
