Thanks for your review.
Sure. Yes, it was found while using the checkpatch.
I tried to put "checkpatch fixes" in the commit header but the tool
did not allow me.
So, I removed it.
But I think I can add that in the commit log.

ok sure. Last time I tried to mention "fix checkpatch warnings" in a
general way,
but the tool itself catches it and throws another warning.
So, I chose the major fix as the commit header and combined others, instead
of raising 3 different patches.
Let me try to put the same as you mentioned above.

I will correct these and send v2 in a different mail.

Thanks.
