For me, NAK also needs reasons.
And this issue is about "coding styles issue", I am not quite sure whether trivial patch maintainer and mm maintainer are also the maintainer for "coding styles issues".
I guess they are related with this patch, and their NAKs' reason are: mm and trivial don't care about this coding style issue, is it correct?

OK, thanks, it is really one proof for us. :-)
I guess, the file above almost means: except whitespace/indentation, trivial patches don't consider about the coding styles issues. But can we say coding styles issues are not issues in our kernel? (I guess not)
If we can not say, I guess one of your suggestion is useful (maybe be as your suggestion): find one suitable member (I guess I am not), run "checkpatch -file" under "./include", and fix all reported issues.
Thanks. -- Chen Gang (陈刚)
