and this changes my points how? It's not like it's hard to fix, and 
the code is moved non-trivially anyway, it's better to have it nicer 
if we touch it anyway.

I find that a rather flippant attitude to kernel code quality 
issues.

Also, isnt it a double standard: why should newbies be held to 
higher standards than you hold yourself to?

Please just fix problems like everyone else is expected to fix it 
too and you wont get such review feedback.
