In general use checkpatch.pl on code you are submitting or around code
you are already patching.

Sending in standalone coding style patches 9 times in 10 will result
in a rejected patch.

I think Greg KH recently said he would accept coding style cleanups to
drivers in the staging directory.  But even there I'm sure actual code
improvements would be preferred.
