Technically the braces you remove in this patch _are_
unnecessary. But, I think the driver is more confusing
with them removed.

In a lot of places there is quite a bit of code between
where the opening and closing braces would be.
Granted, a lot of them are due to the wordy comments
but some are in places like:

        for (...)
                if (...) {
                        ...
                }

There aren't too bad but the one like this are:

        If (...)
                If (...)
                        ...
                else
                        ...
        else
                ...

The nested if/else blocks are easy to break.

Just my two cents...
