Maybe the author of this code:

    (ufstat & info->tx_fifomask) != 0

just wanted to outline (logically) that the result of this bitwise
operation produces FIFO length, which he checks to have non-zero
length? Mechanically of course it doesn't matter much, and I guess
everyone can understand what's going on there even without '!= 0'
part. But it looks quite intentional to me, because in the same 'if'
block the author uses this as well:

    (ufstat & info->tx_fifofull)

without any comparison operators.

Does this line fit into 80 characters? If no, please rework it so it
does. I guess it's also possible to get rid of superfluous braces
there, but then the code might look confusing, and I'm not sure if
checkpatch would be ok with that.
