Well, yeah, given that fs/select.c is not a very hot file.  Introduced
inconsistencies are gonna stay there for a long time.  The two issues
in this patch is minor and can be easily adjusted but in general I'm
not too sure whether always sticking with checkpatch is a good idea
especially on fairly cold areas.  Anyways, I'll fix it up.

Thanks.
