checkpatch: check networking specific block comment style
Produces warnings on code comments which follow the Linux coding style
guide. While the desired code comment style for networking my differ
from the rest of the kernel, both styles should be permitted.
This patch reverts a portion of the commit to allow multi-line code
comments to use either style.
