Same things apply as in the previous patch. (space after punctuation,
Sob of sender should be last)

I don't care much about this change. While the statement that this
driver is only instantiated on dt platforms is probably right,
explicitly checking for it might still prevent surprises later, serves
as explicit statement for the driver reader that non-dt isn't supposed
to work and given that the check is cheap I tend slightly to just keep
it.

Best regards
Uwe
