Don't use // comment style. Also, for multi-line comments
in Linux, please use this preferred style:
/*
* 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.
