Hi Simon,
Reverse Xmas tree style & 80 char preferences come from your advise
in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240530034844.11176-6-SkyLake.Huang@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
Parens removing comes from Daniel's advise in
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240701105417.19941-14-SkyLake.Huang@xxxxxxxxxxxx/

Because previous patchset(
https://lore.kernel.org/all/20240701105417.19941-1-SkyLake.Huang@xxxxxxxxxxxx/
) is too large, I guess it's better to commit this change first so that
I can handle the rest. And this should be "some other reason"?
And since this patch is simple clean-ups, is it necessary to separate
it?

BRs,
Sky
