No, it's fine on top. I ask for enough yak-shaving already :-)

Sakari is even more strict than me about line lengths :-)
It a line is just a couple of charaters about 80 columns and doesn't
have a nice split point I would avoid breaking it as I feel the result
would be less readable.
In this particular case, breaking the line would lead to
v4l2_ctrl_new_std(ctrl_hdlr, &ov9282_ctrl_ops,
V4L2_CID_FLASH_HW_STROBE_SIGNAL, 0, 1, 1, 0);
which I think is OK. It's very subjective of course.
