What is the reason to not split formats?
I can see that in Documentation/CodingStyle in Chapter 2 it is OK to split
formats if it is not making readability worse.
So, is it for the sake of readability or is it new coding style rule for the
kernel that is not in documentation yet or something else or am I misunderstood
something?
