From 82b8000c28b56b014ce52a1f1581bef4af148681 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Johannes Berg Date: Mon, 19 Aug 2024 11:09:43 +0200 Subject: net: drop special comment style As we discussed in the room at netdevconf earlier this week, drop the requirement for special comment style for netdev. For checkpatch, the general check accepts both right now, so simply drop the special request there as well.
