Yeah, I agree. dtfmt tries to be pragmatic and guess the intended style
of where to have the opening `<` and closing `>` of the array (since
there is no definitive answer in the kernel). That is, if the `<` and
`>` are different lines, then you probably want to keep that (many
examples of this in devictree files in the kernel tree).

I will remove the newline. If you now run dtfmt after that, it properly
formats it on one line (since `<` and `>` are on the same line now).

One of the hardest things left to implement is line wrapping (i.e. lines
spanning over 100 chars). Which has been left out due to too many
uncertainties. I'll be happy is we could come to some kind of agreement
on how to do that (but I'll guess that will take some time indeed...).
