Okay, glad to hear you run it regularly when submitting patches. I agree that there are some things I might change about the kernel's style choices, but I think it is more important that we remain consistent with the kernel as a whole. I really like tools that enforce things like this, even if I don't agree 100% with the results. > > Also, one last thing.
