You should be more specific: which style issue?

If this has been found by scripts/checkpatch.pl as:

WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
#252: FILE: drivers/media/usb/hackrf/hackrf.c:252:
+       const bool tx = test_bit(TX_ON, &dev->flags);
+       static const struct {

it is a false positive, as the code which follows the blank line is a
declaration too.

Ciao ciao,
