Hi Jorge.

Before we get to the platch please remember that you should send all
Greybus patches to greybus-dev@...ts.linaro.org and
linux-kernel@...r.kernel.org.  I will add them in now and leave all of
the context so other can see what you sent.

The part you're removing has all of the parameters at the same
indentation level and what you adding has them at two different
indentation levels so I'm not sure this is a step forward.  Since the
kernel coding style doesn't address this specific case, AFAICS, I would
leave it as is despite the complaint.  If others disagree then go ahead
as I really don't care much either way.
