[PATCH] staging: media: atomisp: Fix block comment formatting

[Lame Morupisi]

Align the multiline comment describing the MIPI frame memory
layout with the kernel coding style.

Move the opening comment delimiter to its own line and align
the subsequent lines consistently. This is a formatting-only
change and does not affect driver functionality.

[PATCH v2] staging: media: atomisp: Clarify MIPI frame layout comment

[Lame Morupisi]

Clarify the description of the MIPI frame memory layout by
explaining the meaning of optional fields and payload words.

Leave the frame layout diagram unchanged to preserve its
existing representation.

Why are you sending a v2?

The lines are not aligned now.

It's most likely one of the very first patches to LKML by you. See my
comments below.

...

While at it, make it consistent with the requirement for multi-line
comments, id est start the sentence with a capital letter.

This uses the wrong multi-line comment style.

...

And as Dan said, you missed changelog to explain. (But in any case
neither v1 nor v2 is good to go.)
