Among comments in the traditional /* single liner */ ones, our
reviews seem to have missed a few // comments.  While they are not
illegal per-se, they look out of place mixed with the /* ... */
style comments, which is the prevailing style used in this project.

Fix those small number of style violations in our own code; files
with borrowed code that have // comments as the prevalent style are
left untouched.
