You still have lines with > 80 columns, primarily because of very long
variable names. I would suggest to pick shorter names - there is no
technical reason for variables named watchdog_deferred_registration_XXX,
and I don't see why we should have checkpatch warnings just because
of long variable names.

Also, multi-line alignment is still not correct.
I would suggest to run the patch through checkpatch --strict.
