That depends. In mandoc, i certainly prefer "pointer + offset"
over "[offest]", arguing that pointer[offest] is defined
as mere syntactic sugar for *(pointer + offset), so to me
personally, "[offest]" feels like a slight detour.
But it looks like a matter of personal taste to me, and i doubt
that OpenBSD in general prefers one or the other.
Both are certainly correct, and i consider both readable.
Either way, this doesn't feel like an issue important enough
to patch one way or the other.
I can't really speak for the kernel, but that shouldn't matter
because this doesn't feel like a question specific to the kernel.
Yours,
Ingo
