If you insist on pushing this rather unncessary change, please do it
properly, and remove the blank line before the return statement as well.
As Jes said, you need to remove the blank lines before the returns
too. checkpatch should have picked this up, you did run the patch
through checkpatch before you sent it, right?
checkpatch doesn't pick this up.

If you'd like to make it do so, you're welcome to try
but it's likely a bit more complicated than it appears.
