Yeah, it's inconsistent, but if you look at the rest of the file, none
of it looks particularly pretty.

This change isn't really affecting KCSAN, but is a stylistic change
confined to compiler-clang.h: while we're here, we could just bunch a
couple of them into one patch and make it "compiler-clang.h: Improve
comments style" or something.

1. These sentences probably want a '.' at the end.

2. Make all comments start with a capital letter, and punctuate
   correctly.

3. Multi-line comments should have the first line just '/*' and the
   second line starts the text.

Thanks,
