I think checkpatch is correct here to complain about the unnecessary curly braces
here.

Plus why the heavy use of 'signed int' here and elsewhere in the patches - why
not 'int' ?

Plus #2, the heavy use of type casts looks pretty ugly to begin with - is there no
way to turn this into more natural code?

Thanks,

Ingo
