Because you have the 'x' in your comment string "ex" parts, you can end a comment by typing only the last character on the new line as the first action. See :help format-comments.

Specifically, your abbreviation should not be:

/*<CR><CR>*/

It should instead be:

/*<CR><CR>/

Because Vim will automatically end the comment on pressing '/' but will insert the text literally if you press */ instead.
