Which is a valid point. I don't really care which style option it
really is, if it helps you, I'm fine with it. But as a maintainer who
does this on a volunteer basis when I have a 5-minute window, I'm not
going to spend my time looking for style issues. So in the ongoing
vm_event series that's under review where you explicitly called out
that the vm_event maintainers have to review and point out all style
issues, that's a no-go from my side. So either we have automatic style
checks or I'm just going to Ack patches with style issues.
