Hehe, I was actually thinking maybe that's why you added the braces :)

Yeah. And it's not like that we need to have 0 checkpatch warnings. For
example, I already have a long list of errors I ignore:

MSLEEP,USLEEP_RANGE,PRINTK_WITHOUT_KERN_LEVEL,NETWORKING_BLOCK_COMMENT_STYLE,LINUX_VERSION_CODE,COMPLEX_MACRO

checkpatch just a good tool to catch some of the style issues and makes
my work easier, especially when newbies send patches.
