[PATCH V2 0/7] usb-misc: sisusbvga: cleanup and bug fix

[Peter Senna Tschudin <peter.senna@collabora.com>]

The file drivers/usb/misc/sisusbvga/sisusb.c had many (192) coding style issues
reported by checkpatch. This file also had a problematic error path in the
probe function that could result in dereferencing a null pointer.

This patch series fix coding style issues and a problematic error path which
could result in a null pointer dereference.

Patch 1 and 2 change whitespace only, patch 3 to 6 fix various coding style
issues, and patch 7 fix a null pointer dereference bug.

Joe Perches suggested me to include objtdiff output for patches that are not
supposed to make semantic changes, but it is not working well for me with gcc
(GCC) 5.3.1 20151207 (Red Hat 5.3.1-2). Even compiling the same source code
produces different output from objdump. The objdump command I'm using is from
./scripts/objdiff. See an example:

# A patch that should not make any semantic change
