Ah no, I was aware of that, but I guess we interpret this bit
differently:

+Statements longer than 80 columns should be broken into sensible chunks,
+unless exceeding 80 columns significantly increases readability and does
+not hide information.


Here, I would've said something like:

+	if (request->request_lci && nla_put_flag(msg, NL80211_PMSR_FTM_REQ_ATTR_REQUEST_LCI))
+		return -ENOBUFS;

can indeed "be broken into sensible chunks, unless ..."

Just like this one already did:

+	if (request->request_civicloc &&
+	    nla_put_flag(msg, NL80211_PMSR_FTM_REQ_ATTR_REQUEST_CIVICLOC))
+		return -ENOBUFS;


Personally I think the latter is easier to read because scanning the
long line for the logical break at "&&" is harder for me, but YMMV.
