Multiline comments are formatted as
/*
* 1st line
* last line
*/
in new code.

The whitespace in the if--else clause went worse. Indent by tabs, not
spaces. Furthermore, there should be spaces around * operators.

(BTW, winbond/README alias winbond/TODO doesn't mention it, but another
(trivial) step is going to be to change variable names and function
names from CamelCase to lower_case spelling.)
