This is cleaning up just some of them, we still seem to have quite a
bit of them.
Main problem with this changes is that it creates lots of work to
people backporting patches and stable maintainers, I remember that
they have complain about this.
Either way, I would prefer you fix this coding style issue in one go,
ie. one single patch, it will be a large one.
