Well, those abilities are at a minimum certainly goalposts
and should be preferred over most everything else.

That's a relatively unusual style.

The more common style is to keep the pointer on the same line
as the return type like:

static inline struct omap_desc *
to_omap_dma_desc(struct dma_async_tx_descriptor *t)

It's roughly 50:1 for the * on the 1st line.

spacing, there's an 8 char space where there could be a tab.
