No thanks. Let's save to bikeshedding for important stuff such as line
lengths. :)

Cc'ing QEMU Trivial, maybe it can be applied there.

I'm in favor of this patch; it only affects new code, and explains why I
have been spotting unspaced operators in new code that didn't trigger
checkpatch noise.

What's weird is that the comment wasn't even correct. Probably one
person special-cased << and >>, and another then extended to
special-case all operators.
