CODING_STYLE: Mention preferred comment form 

Our defacto coding style strongly prefers /* */ style comments
over the single-line // style, and checkpatch enforces this,
but we don't actually document this. Mention it in CODING_STYLE.

Rationale: Yoda conditions (as in 'if (1 == a)') are awkward to read.
Besides, good compilers already warn users when '==' is mis-typed as '=',
even when the constant is on the right.

We use traditional C-style /* */ comments and avoid // comments.
Rationale: The // form is valid in C99, so this is purely a matter of
consistency of style. The checkpatch script will warn you about this.
