bug#11841: 24.1; emacs hangs when opening cpp file with mixed eol styles

Why should it?  It's not a whitespace, and while it has "comment end"
syntax, it does not have a matching comment-start.

I think you should give it whitespace syntax.
Currently "foo // bar ^M baz ^J" is treated in CC-mode as "foo <comment>
baz", which I think is wrong.
