I did run checkpatch.pl and I fixed all ERRORs reported. I also fixed
most WARNINGs, leaving only line length warnings that I wasn't sure
were worth fixing. Documentation/process/submitting-patches.rst [1]
does leave a room for exceptions and I know that at last some
maintainers strongly prefer slightly longer lines before awkward line
breaks (and I can see that you left a couple 80+ lines in the final
commit of the second patch as well). I took a bet on leaving most of
the lines as-is and now I see it was a bad choice... I'll tweak the
imaginary knob further in the strict direction, hopefully I'll have a
better accuracy next time.

As for the double empty line, I agree it shouldn't be there, but I
didn't spot it because chachpatch.pl isn't complaining about that at
all on my side. Did you spot it manually or am I missing some
checkpatch.pl flag?

Thank you for still having patience with me and thanks to Stephen for
the reviews! I hope the patches will cause more good than bad from now
on :)
