Firstly, when posting on lkml please use proper line length breaks. Your email was almost unreadable in my mailer, so i had to stop reading it. Also, i'm surprised you see the need to try to influence things here - i dont see a single upstream contribution from you in the past ~4 years of git log so how can you have any knowledge and experience about such details? Both of those issues pretty materially weaken your standing to be taken seriously when it comes to fine details of Linux kernel coding style.
