If you send a new version of this series, can you add this on top?

Subject: [PATCH] KVM: selftests: Clean up coding style in binary stats test

Fix a variety of code style violations and/or inconsistencies in the
binary stats test.  The 80 char limit is a soft limit and can and should
be ignored/violated if doing so improves the overall code readability.

Specifically, provide consistent indentation and don't split expressions
at arbitrary points just to honor the 80 char limit.

Opportunistically expand/add comments to call out the more subtle aspects
of the code.
