Better use tab + spaces and align on the opening parenthesis. What checkpatch.pl complains about here isn't the alignment, it's the use of more than 8 consecutive spaces. > > (...) > > @@ -241,8 +244,10 @@ static int pca_xfer(struct i2c_adapter *i2c_adap, > > completed = pca_address(adap, msg); > > break; > > > > - case 0x18: /* SLA+W has been transmitted; ACK has been received */ > > - case 0x28: /* Data byte in I2CDAT has been transmitted; ACK has been received */ > > + case 0x18: /* SLA+W has been transmitted; > > + ACK has been received */ > > + case 0x28: /* Data byte in I2CDAT has been transmitted; > > + ACK has been received */ > > First, check CodingStyle for how multiline comments should look like.

He is "only" helping with formatting cleanups. Asking him to reword the comments doesn't seem wise. And there's nothing wrong with two-line comments as above. The "preferred comment format" in CodingStyle is often unrealistic IMHO, I'm not always following it in my own code. I agree with all other comments. -- Jean Delvare -- To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-i2c" in the body of a message to majordomo@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html
