Greg doesn't agree with checkpatch about unnecessary parentheses.  If the code
looks like this:

	if ((a == b) || (b == c)) {

then just ignore checkpatch.  However if the code looks like:

	p = &(foo);

Then change it to:

	p = &foo;

This sort of change would need to be split up by driver instead of all of
driver/staging.  So it would be a series of patches.  You don't need to split
it up by file.  Split it by driver.
