But this can't be done on OMAP3 branch, as it would conflict with "no general coding style clean up in OMAP3 patches, only OMAP3 related changes, please". Thus, we have to do code style changes for this file at mainline once OMAP3 is merged. Until then we have to stay with consistent local style.

Sorry if I misunderstand something here, but it seems to me that this 
conflicts with

http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2008-November/042975.html

"It is more important to use a consistent style in a single source 
file, indeed."

?

Additionally, do you (you == all maintainers and reviewers at this 
list) accecpt/want to have general (non-OMAP3) coding style clean up 
in OMAP3 patch set? If yes, once we send the resulting OMAP3 patch 
series from u-boot-arm/omap3 for final merge to U-Boot list again, we 
will get

http://lists.denx.de/pipermail/u-boot/2008-October/042464.html

again. It was my understanding not to do this.

It would be really nice if you could give some more details how you 
like to have things done right (and not only a more or less limited 
"NACK" ;) ). I will do this then, but please give me some clear 
direction to go.

Many thanks for your help
