Subject: Re: [staging/hv] why it not follow kernel codingstyle?

hi all,

i read the driver/staging/hv code, why it will apply into kernel tree 
that it not follow the kernel codingstyle? it all of "Hungarian
notation".

see Documentation/CodingStyle. In this document,(line 254) it says: 
"Encoding the type of a function into the name (so-called Hungarian
notation) is brain damaged".

so it ruin the kernel tree, it had better let the author rewrite it 
follow the "linux kernel CodingStyle".

Best,
Figo.zhang
