No, just pick the "best" one of what you sent
without any of the "style" modifications like
the 80 column adjustments and see what happens.
Read the code outside of staging for awhile
to get a feel for what style seems appropriate
before you send style-only patches.
For instance, this proposed change:

while it's nice that you put the multi-line dereferences
together, it's not nice that you change the indentation.
Sometimes it's simply better to exceed 80 columns.
But here, it'd probably be nicer to use temporaries.
Something like:
