I've expected it to be plain english, something like following:

    /*
     * Return the physical address (or virtual address in case of
     * virtio-user) of mbuf data buffer.
     *
     * The address is firstly casted to the word size (sizeof(uintptr_t))
     * before casting it to uint64_t. This is to make it work with different
     * combination of word size (64 bit and 32 bit) and virtio device
     * (virtio-pci and virtio-user).
     */

Okay to you?
