_much worse_? Wow, I thought the opposite.
Anyway, that's just a coding style patch, feel free to simply not apply it as
it's really a matter of personal taste but be sure that I'm not
blindly changing the code
accordingly to checkpatch. That might be almost true when I started
doing this kind of patches months
ago but it's definitely not true anymore.

Thanks.
