Just a generic remark that may help you with other changes you will be
making in the linux kernel. Warnings from checkpatch.pl and other tools
are useful, but try to look further than just fixing a warning.
Understand what the code is doing is just as important.

So you have a struct here with three members and you choose to only
change the first two. What do you think about the third one just by
looking at it. And what about the name of the struct. What does 'tstr' mean?

so struct tstr_RSSI is really a rssi history buffer so maybe naming it
as such makes it clearer, ie. struct rssi_history_buffer.

So the 'full' member is actually a bool and you might type it as such.

Hope this helps.
