Well, the 80-column police police will get you there, and it is pretty silly-looking.


We can avoid the first line break by doing

					pid_t tid;

					tid = vm_is_stack(task, vma, is_pid);

nice and easy!

And we can avoid the other by saving a whole tabstop:

Which is not the prettiest thing in the world, but it gets the job done.
