Hi Sevinj,

Looks good, but let's not introduce new checkpatch issue:

CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis
#62: FILE: drivers/staging/r8188eu/core/rtw_mlme.c:1645:
+ if ((p->PMKIDList[i].bUsed) &&
+ (!memcmp(p->PMKIDList[i].Bssid, bssid, ETH_ALEN)))

Thanks for catching this. I wasn't seeing this in my checkpatch
output, and after some digging, I could reproduce it with --strict
option. I think the tutorial at
https://kernelnewbies.org/PatchPhilosophy doesn't mention this option,
so perhaps we should update it?!


To be honest, I am not checkpatch expert, but checkpatch on my PC shows this warning w/o any additional options:

└──$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl ./20220403_sevinj_aghayeva_staging_r8188eu_simplify_control_flow.mbx | rg Alignment
CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis





With regards,
