Hi us,
When i see Documentation/CodingStyle, i find a missing case for "Chapter 3: Placing Braces and Spaces". We often know we should not use braces where a single statement. The first case is:
if (condition)
action();
Another case is:
if (condition)
do_this();
else
do_that();
However, i can not find the second case. So i patch like following.
Thanks.
Best Regards.
Harry Wei.

This does not apply if one branch of a conditional statement is a single
statement. Use braces in both branches.
