There is a similar routine in b43, thus this library function will likely have 
at least 2 users.

In Documentation/CodingStyle, variables with mixed-case names are frownid upon.

As "coord" is only for output, why not have this be a function returning a 
struct cordic_iq?

I think the whitespace should be the same on both sides of the >> operator. 
Either "coord->q>>iter" or "coord->q >> iter" would be OK. I know checkpatch.pl 
does not complain, but it does for other binary operators.
