Hello Christoph-san,
quoted
+         if(size-- <= 0) {
+             return NULL;
+         }
No need for the {} braces for single line conditionals.  also
please put a space in front of opening braces.  If you're unsure
please take a look at Documentation/CodingStyle in the kernel tree.
quoted
+ if((str = re_det1(str, &buf[0].cbuf[4], 4)) == NULL) {
+     return -1;
+ }
Similarly this should be written as:
    str = re_det1(str, &buf[0].cbuf[4], 4);
    if (!str)
        return -1;
Thank you for your comment; these will be fixed at next time.
And btw, all these function have very non-descriptive names
and no comments.  That could use some work.  Also I'm not
sure -N returns are very useful - you should at least have
descriptive enums for the error cases.
We don't think these functions are useful for all kernel users,
since they work only on Beat. And, for debugging purpose, return values
indicate the locations of errors in above case, so we don't have enums
for these error cases. But it isn't easy to understand them without
comments as you mentioned, so we will add adequate comments at next time.

Thank you,
