SubjectRe: [PATCH] Staging: speakup: buffers: Fixed a return value coding style issue.
When checking buffers.c with checkpatch.pl it throws the following 
error: drivers/staging/speakup/buffers.c:58: ERROR: return is not a
function, parentheses are not required

I watched one of your talks, it's very informative and concise:

Subject: [PATCH] Staging: speakup: buffers: Fixed a return coding style issue

When checking buffers.c with checkpatch.pl it throws the following error: drivers/staging/speakup/buffers.c:58: ERROR: return is not a function, parentheses are not required

Fixed error by removing parenthesis.
