Yes. I almost removed all commented code to make it a little more
palatable.

Those churns are from black/autopep8, which also addressed other 
coding style issues(*).

I don't mind much about using either single or double quote, but
having a standard is a good thing. At the plus side, as C uses 
double quotes for strings this is closer to the kernel coding style.

So, I opted to merge such changes from the lint tools.

(*) I didn't blidnly accept all coding style changes from linters,
    dropping the ones that would make the final code worse.

Thanks,
