V2: Formatting fixes Kconfig fix Cleanup of #include-s Use devm_kasprintf_strarray()Thanks, but it seems there are unsettled down points as per v1. Can you comment on them there?
Those remaining comments are a matter of personal taste & details of personal coding style. We don't have defined rules for such details. If developer submitted code that matches *defined* rules and is fine to read I don't see why we should enforce someone's coding style. We may easily get into pointless and time wasting argues between multiple developers. Empty line after one-line comment isn't against rules and checkpatch.pl doesn't complain about it. I've never heard of rule of sorting #include-s from the most generic to the most particular one. I don't even know how to meter that. Actually coding-style.rst suggests #include-s should be sorted but without specifying how. My first guess is alphabetical order. If you think some extra coding style should be enforced for Linux code please kindly update coding-style.rst and checkpatch.pl so that: 1. We have clear rules 2. We keep code consistent across subsystems 3. It can be automatically verified 4. There are not more argues about what's the preferred format As I pointed out we have over 1000 examples of empty line above module_platform_driver() so clearly what you describe as common sense isn't clear for all developers.
