    checkpatch: check networking specific block comment style

We are seeing false positive warnings.  Here is an example of the
code the would generate a false warning:

#define foo	0x0000 /* foo comment */

checkpatch.pl generates a warnings that the */ should be on a separate
line, which in this case is incorrect.
Sorry 'bout that.  I believe it's fixed by:
