  so what is the actual standard?  besides the above, line space
above?  line space below?  because i see all sorts of variations in
the code, the most common of which is:

... snip ...
static int mod_mem(cmd_tbl_t *, int, int, int, char * const []);

/* Display values from last command.
 * Memory modify remembered values are different from display memory.
 */
static uint     dp_last_addr, dp_last_size;
... snip ...

which, as you can see, has a leading blank line but not a following
one.  so what's correct?  is this written down somewhere?
