Actually, I wrote that code, and I am a kernel coder. You may not like
it, but at the time it seemed the best way to keep the function
readable. This particular style allows for better placement of
comments, which are many in this function.
As long as checkpatch doesn't complain about it, I will not consider
changing it, and will reject any attempt to do so (simply by comparing
the readability before and after the patch and inevitably coming up to
the conclusion that the change isn't worth it.)
