As I said on that thread I would happily change checkpatch to follow suit. Oddly for a CodingStyle discussion there was very "discussion" at all. It feels like people are scared of the passion that often errupts in discussions over style. On that particular suggestion, I would probabally be in favour, and slightly happier to have the string on the printk line for consistency even though that would violate the "don't hide information" rule. -apw | ||||||||||||
