Subject: Re: [PATCH] Staging iio/adc: fixes parenthesis alignment

I feel like these are overly nit-picky...

I understand that everyone is picky about different things.  For
example, I have a prefered style for error handling.  So two days ago
there was a new staging driver and it used label name like
"goto kmalloc_failed;" and I looked until I found an error handling bug
and then I said, "Here is a bug, plus your label names are bad."  When
people have bad style but it doesn't lead to bugs then I let them get
away with it.
