why you are inserting new line here?
I did it so that its readable, will remove it if not required

memcpy(((u8 *)(chan)) + off, info, sizeof(*info));
return 0;
}

No, now this will introduce a new checkpatch warning that "else is not
required after return". why did you introduce this "else"?
I did this so that the code is more readable and understandable, I checked and checkpatch didn't call this out , so its clean.

Otherwise the above code looks like this

if(i)
return 1;
return 0;
