TBH I am not very happy about this patch.

1) It does a bunch of things that are not pure reformatting (removing commented
   out stuff, reordering headers, etc..). This makes the review much harder,
   because now the reviewer has to check what is actual cosmetics and what is
   not.
   So please -- stop doing this. Reformatting patches should contain only
   reformatting and nothing else. Split other forms of cosmetics into separate
   patches.
2) Overly strict adherence to guidelines makes the code actually _harder_ to
   read in some places (e.g. unnecessary line breaks, splitting one-line case)
3) Finally, the formatting in this file was mostly fine before the patch. I can
   understand (and even write myself) huge reformatting patches for horrible
   mpegvideo-level unreadable crap. But obsessively fixing every single
   formatting nit in every single file you touch is IMO counterproductive.
