Dear David,

Thank you for your feedback, and yes I totally agree - this patch was
more for procedure's sake to quieten the checkpatch warnings, but I was
in two minds about whether I should include it.

The indentation level is absolutely what is the problem here, but it is
arguably not in scope for this particular patch set given these are
pre-existing lines that have the issue. Certainly needs fixing though
for sure - just that this is more substantial and worthy of a separate
patch set in my opinion.

Looks like I need to do V3 anyway as I missed an unused-but-set warning
in patch 5 of the series. I may therefore drop this patch in V3 and
perhaps work on the indentation problem more generally.

Regards,
Phil
