I would just use

	data->local_ext_offset = lm90_params[data->kind].local_ext_offset;

without any conditionals (the if statements just add code without real value),
followed by

	BUG_ON((data->flags & LM90_HAVE_LOCAL_EXT) && data->local_ext_offset == 0);

if you want to be sure.

Try to apply your own patch, and you'll see git complain about whitespace errors.
