checkpatch.pl block comment detection fail

[Doug Evans]

Hi.

The coding style docs don't specify this as being bad:

foo(/*bar=*/true);

which improves readability at the call site.

It's not a style to be used liberally, but sometimes it's helpful.

Alas checkpatch.pl claims this is a block comment.

Would it be ok if I try to fix checkpatch.pl to treat this as ok?
