Hi Xiang,
I'm not against this change which follows checkpatch's rule, since I think this
can help to unify coding style in different modules of Linux. Maybe cleanup in
other filesystem is needed as well.
Also, personally speaking, I'm used to judge point/variable is valid or not by
using 'if {,!}{value,pointer}', it will be easy for me to know which case next
branch belongs to, just my habit being trained during f2fs development... :P
