You didn't compile this with VERBOSE_DEBUG enabled.
You are adding arguments to a function that takes
a fixed number of arguments.
checkpatch is mindless.
Please don't mindlessly do what it says, just try
to improve the code readability where it's unclear
and especially try to find and fix logic defects.
