Subject: Re: [PATCH] Staging: speakup: synth.c: removed a space
Date: Wed, 4 Dec 2013 11:21:37 +0300	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20131204082137.GR5443@mwanda> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <1386143115.30493.48.camel@joe-AO722>

You and I generally agree on style preferences...  I think the warning
should be limited to grep " ;$".

I did a grep on the kernel for ' ;' and found 8000 results.  6000 of
them are caught by my semicolon before the newline rule.  The remaining
2000 are assembly, macros, and crappy for loops.

regards,
dan carpenter
