Comment after the semicolon?
Given that this comment is about the 50 and not the delay member, I
prefer it before the ;.
Hmm. I personally find it hard to read and can only find about 30
instances of this comment style (for assignments) in the kernel. And
arguably the comment applies equally well to the delay variable in this
case too.
It is not too traditional, but I believe it makes sense....

(and yes, I wish we had kernel in Rust, so we could have real units
attached to our variables...)
Well, the variable itself could always be named "delay_ms" if it's really
that important.
FTR: That's what I did for v3.

Best regards
Uwe
