[PATCH 3/6] staging: comedi: comedi_fops.c: reformat ioctl handler comments

From: Ian Abbott
Date: Wed Jan 28 2015 - 21:33:34 EST


The unlocked_ioctl handler calls a different function to handle each
supported ioctl command code. Most of these have a block comment
indicating which command code it handles, a brief description, and an
informal description of the inputs and outputs. These block comments
are formatted in various styles. Reformat them to the usual block
comment style and do a bit of rewording for consistency. The comment
block for the `COMEDI_CMD` ioctl is missing, so add one.
