Ah ! Here goes my sneak attempts at violating coding style while nobody
notices :-)

No seriously, that sort of stuff shouldn't be such a hard rule... In
some cases the "official" way looks nicer, on some cases it's just a
waste of space, and I've grown to prefer my slightly more compact form,
at least depending on how the surrounding code looks like.

Since that's all powerpc arch code, I believe I'm entitled to that
little bit of flexibility in how the code looks like :-) It's not
like I'm GoingToPlayWithCaps() or switching to 3-char tabs :-)

Cheers,
Ben.
