Please use scripts/checkpatch.pl?  This patch adds a tremendous number
of coding-style errors.  checkpatch detects other problems too.

Like the undesirable space here.

And that.

What on earth are we doing declaring a core VFS function from within a
scsi driver's .c file?

There is a definition of poll_wait() in include/linux/poll.h.

I see a schedule_delayed_work(), but no cancel_delayed_work().

By what means does the driver ensure that there is no pending work
after device close, device suspend, module removal, etc?

The blank line would typically go after end-of-locals and before
start-of-code.

Rather than playing 80-column party tricks, it's much more natural to do:

	struct megasas_aen_event *ev;

	...
	ev = container_of(work, struct megasas_aen_event, hotplug_work);

This leaves a keventd thread unavailable for use by the rest of the
kernel for an entire second.  It's a shared resource, and this is quite
rude.

It would be better to schedule another work one second hence.  And to
remember to cancel it on the close/shutdown/suspend/rmmod/etc path, of
course..

The /** token is used to introduce kerneldoc comments.  This is not a
kerneldoc comment and there is no point in avoiding standard coding
style here.


For single-line comments:

	/* Get the latest sequence number from FW */

For multi-line comments:

	/*
	 * Get the latest sequence number from FW
	 * blah blah
	 */

wot? 

aen_mutex has type `struct mutex'.  down() and up() are used against
`struct semaphore'.

This code should have emitted compile warnings, and crashed at runtime.
