When backport the upstream commit to the internal LTS kernel version,

or
commit c51f8f88d705e06bd696d7510aff22b33eb8e638 upstream.
Internal to what?
If it's your own internal build system, I think you should
keep your own local patch to checkpatch.
I don't see why the kernel version should accept it.
Is this style used by anyone else?
AFAIK, this style is only used in the stable tree, for example:
