I don't feel that's useful.
You're welcome to add it if you want to.
checkpatch tends to be used for firs patch submissions and
adding it would only encourage a new wave of trivial whitespace
patches.
I think there are already way, _way_ too many existing instances
of comments that are of the form
/* foo
* ...
to add that.
There are 10s of thousands outside of net/ and drivers/net/.
