Subject: Re: [PATCH] hid: usbhid: hiddev.c: fix checkpatch.pl errors
Hi,
well, not to undermine your work, I am not a big fan of this kind of
patches. Yes, it's nice to follow checkpatch, but on some rare case, we
just ignore the warning because the end result would be too ugly (I
haven't read the patch, so I am not judging how you solved the issues
raised here and there).
The other reason I don't like such patches is that they tend to block
backports for distribution maintainers. They touch everywhere in the
file. This means that to backport a simple security fix, we need to
backport this (equivalent of a) patch. And then we need to upgrade the
full stack to have the patch applied properly.
I don't mind people fixing checkpatch issues when they are actually
changing the functional part of the code ("oh, I need to add a return
-ENODEV, but the pr_err above is ugly, let's fix that").
So, I am not pushing a formal NACK on this patch and the others you
sent. I am just raising my concerns and let Jiri decides whether or not
we need to take this work.
Cheers,
Benjamin
PS: I know this is low hanging fruit work, but this should rather be
done in drivers/staging than in a non-staging tree.
