This isn't part of kernel-doc, if that's what you mean.

You forgot (D), (E), (F), (G) and a whole lot more besides.

It doesn't matter a lot what we do, but we should do it one way and not 38
ways.

Documentation/CodingStyle doesn't mention commenting at all (eyes roll
heavenwards).

This

	/*
	 * Lorem ipsum dolor sit amet, consectetur
	 * adipisicing elit, sed do eiusmod tempor
	 * incididunt ut labore et dolore magna aliqua.
	 */

is probably the most common, and is what I use when forced to descrog
comments.
