That's for free standing if statements, the reason I'm asking for braces
at both levels here is that you've got a nested if - it's similar to
having braces on both branches of an if, being consistent within the
same statement.

Just use a single channel for the controller rather than allocating them
per device?  It's not like the controller is going to be able to
interact with multiple devics simultaneously.
