This is intended to be instructive for Ionet Alexa.
All these patches are almost totally unnecessary.
Converting a bunch of issues all at the same time makes for very
difficult reviewing. Separating the changes into individual
patches can make verifying and accepting the changes easier.
If signal.c was changed just neatening purposes, this is how I
think it should be done.
Even if these patches were applied, there would still checkpatch
messages that are and should be ignored because:
o logic there shouldn't be changed
o 80 column warnings don't have to be fixed
o checkpatch is just a brainless little script
ie:
before the patches:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --strict kernel/signal.c
[...]
total: 53 errors, 99 warnings, 37 checks, 3674 lines checked
after:
$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --strict kernel/signal.c
