Alexander Kornienko f993659b8f Revert r240137 (Fixed/added namespace ending comments using clang-tidy. NFC)
Apparently, the style needs to be agreed upon first.

/// arrive; therefore it should not be called on objects which are actually
/// streamed (this would defeat the purpose of streaming). Instead,
/// isValidAddress can be used to test addresses without knowing the exact size
/// of the stream. Finally, getPointer can be used instead of readBytes to avoid
