[PATCH] ethtool: fix incorrect kernel-doc style comment in ethtool.h

[Kriish Sharma]

Building documentation produced the following warning:

  WARNING: ./include/linux/ethtool.h:495 This comment starts with '/**', but isn't a kernel-doc comment. Refer Documentation/doc-guide/kernel-doc.rst
 * IEEE 802.3ck/df defines 16 bins for FEC histogram plus one more for

This comment was not intended to be parsed as kernel-doc, so replace
the '/**' with '/*' to silence the warning and align with normal
comment style in header files.

No functional changes.
