Not sure if this is a style issue, kernel seems to have 2990 instances of this!
this is reported by checkpatch.pl --strict.
Please don't run checkpatch on code that's already in the kernel, and especially not with the --strict (a.k.a. --subjective) option enabled.
Don't try to fix what isn't broken.
I would agree in general, but this case is different: the SoundWire code in the upstream kernel is missing parts left and right and isn't fully functional as is. I will soon be posting what's missing, so this cleanup is an opportunity to bring SoundWire to the latest coding standards before adding the missing pieces which will be compliant with --strict. For the record using --strict already exposed 3 major issues in the yet-to-be-released code, so it's not as subjective as you describe it.
