For me, every member has his/her own taste, we need talk about it case
by case.

For me, this is the simplest way for using "? :", so it is easy enough (
I guess, Linux kernel does not completely reject "? :").

For me, this case may depend on various members' tastes (although it is
simple enough to me -- it is in one line within 80 columns, and related
with 2 functions' call).

For this case, if any of another member suggests to keep original code
no touch, too, I shall send patch v2 for it (keep it no touch).

For me, this is almost the simplest way for using "||", we can find
this case in include/linux (60+ cases for '||', and 150+ for '&&'), and
the new return statement is in one line within 80 columns.

The new return statement is not the simplest, but it is still simple
enough (which should be better than original several lines statements).


Thanks.
