Hi Andrew,

I need 3, not more than 3.

The call that violates (by 1) the limit is to
rb8366rb_set_ledgroup_mode(). With its name (a little long), the now
5-char longer macro/enum and 3 tabs, it has 81 columns when I align
the argument to the opening parenthesis.

static int rtl8366rb_setup(struct dsa_switch *ds)
{
       (...)
       if (priv->leds_disabled) {
               /* Turn everything off */
               regmap_update_bits(priv->map,
                                  RTL8366RB_INTERRUPT_CONTROL_REG,
                                  RTL8366RB_P4_RGMII_LED,
                                  0);

               for (i = 0; i < RTL8366RB_NUM_LEDGROUPS; i++) {
                       ret = rb8366rb_set_ledgroup_mode(priv, i,
                                                        RTL8366RB_LEDGROUP_OFF);
                       if (ret)
                               return ret;
               }
        }
}

Should I rename the rb8366rb_set_ledgroup_mode function,
RTL8366RB_LEDGROUP_OFF or is the violation here acceptable?

Can I use the double tab indentation here like it appears in
https://elixir.bootlin.com/linux/latest/source/net/8021q/vlanproc.c#L120?

Regards,

Luiz
