yeah, I'd prefer that style too. But checkpatch.pl would complain
about it.. or so I thought.. well seems only to be the case in linux and
only in "NETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE" (only for net/ and
drivers/net/).
I'll definitely fix that ;)

Mhh, did this ever match if req_seq/aliases was used? "dm uclass" dumps
the seq and req_seq. So I don't know if that was ever intended to match.
But I'm open to suggestions.
