Nice detailed commit message!
I'm not sure, but I think you should just write:
"According to coding style standards" or something.
Links may die, and so having them in the commit message
may not give us much in the future.

I'm not sure how this works now, but I believe there was
something with older versions of MSVC that didn't allow
initializing variables like this, and that's why it is separated
in declaration and initialization.
I believe C89 was the thing here? The VMware guys will know.

IIRC, the problem was with named initializers for structures. I don't think it's an issue now that we require Visual Studio 2013.

Ordinary, simple initializers like above are always fine.


I believe the requirement was lifted to a newer C standard(C99?).
Therefore this is now OK I believe.

I haven't looked to closely at the other changes.
I can do that tomorrow, if no one gets to it before me.

Don't let the minor nitpicking get you down ;-)
There's always the occasional nitpick when you first adapt
to how things are done in the project.

Thanks for your first patch!

Yes.
