[PATCH v2 0/6] Staging: rtl8192e: rtllib_wx codingstyle/refactor

[Felix Schlepper]

This series addresses some issues raised by chechpatch.pl
and some minor refactoring of rtllib_modes[].

v2:
    - split multi assignment in two separate steps.
      This avoids having 'fixed'='disabled', which
      is silly.
    - Since there is no formatting of the rtllib_modes[],
      one can safely refactor this code into a array of
      strings. This allows using functions like strcpy/strlen,
      which is less error prone than using a
      rtllib_modes.mode_size.

[PATCH v2 1/6] Staging: rtl8192e: Refactored rtllib_modes

[Felix Schlepper]

The initial reason for looking at this code was an
issue raised by checkpatch.pl:

     $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --terse -f drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_wx.c
     CHECK: Please use a blank line after function/struct/union/enum
     declarations

The additional blank line above the struct/before the headers is
just cleaner.

However, as it turns out since there is no str formatting required
One can replace the error prone str + size struct with a char array.
The rest of this patch fixes the usecases.

[PATCH v2 4/6] Staging: rtl8192e: Added braces around else

[Felix Schlepper]

This addresses two issues raised by checkpatch.pl:

     $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --terse -f drivers/staging/rtl8192e/rtllib_wx.c
     CHECK: braces {} should be used on all arms of this statement
     CHECK: Unbalanced braces around else statement

The coding style rule with not using unnecessary braces around if/else
does not apply if only one branch is a single statement.

Always run checkpatch on your changes so you do not get grumpy
maintainers asking you why you did not run checkpatch on your changes...
