While you are at it, drop the "include;" from the subject. For staging, the 
usual subject is of the form "staging: driver: thing being done". In your case 
"staging: rtl8723bs: Fix coding style errors". The directory of the files are 
not relevant.

I am also not in favor of the large white space between the variable type and 
the name, but that is probably the subject of separate patches.
