The spaces are expected to be at the end only. I can add such example if
you like. There are no fourcc codes with spaces in the middle in neither
V4L2 nor DRM, and I don't think the expectation is to have them either.

Earlier in the review it was proposed that special handling of codes below
32 should be added, which I did. Using the parentheses is apparently an
existing practice elsewhere.
Note that neither DRM nor V4L2 currently has such fourcc codes currently.

The existing instances of printing fourcc codes in V4L2 are scattered
around with priority on implementation simplicity. As we have a single
simplementation here, I'm not really worried about that.

Sure, you can do that, and I can then review your patch and point to the
coding style documentation. :-)
