Checkpatch shows up 40 points, most of them because it's over 80 lines
and some of them because there are some missing spaces etc. I'm sure
code is full of those so i believe we should better cleanup the whole
code (also doing some sparse checking btw) once and for all (i told
you in my previous mail that's what i want to do when i'm done with
exams). It's really more easy for me to clean up the whole code after
i'm done with exams than try to locate 40 places in this monster that
might be fixed manually. I just need some time, i thought porting to
the new API was urgent so i gave it full priority, cleanup can wait i
guess (and we have to do it right and cautious).
