Please always be very specific as to exactly what code style issues you
are fixing.  And never do more than one type of fix at a time, otherwise
it is hard to review, and you can cause errors to be added, like you did
here :(

Please do not start working on code cleanups in any other area of the
kernel other than drivers/staging/ as that is what that is for.  To do
so in other areas of the kernel causes more work for maintainers.

thanks,
