Description

After autoformatting, two additional 'space' characters are added to start of a lines which start with '\' character followed by '*' character in multiline comments.

Before formatting :

/* ---------------------- *\
 *   Multi Line Comment   *
\* ---------------------- */

After formatting :

/* ---------------------- *\
 *   Multi Line Comment   *
  \* ---------------------- */

---

This doesn't work either

Before formatting :

/*
 * ---------------------- *
 *   Multi Line Comment   *
\* ---------------------- *
 */

After formatting :

/*
 * ---------------------- *
 *   Multi Line Comment   *
  \* ---------------------- *
 */

---

Only this works fine which is not useful.

/*
 * ---------------------- *
 *   Multi Line Comment   *
 * ---------------------- *
