Yeah, but look at the file. checkpatch suggests alignment that is
common for function calls, but this doesn't look like a sequence of
function calls, rather like a table - and we align other tables (like
fields in structure definitions) as well because you usually don't
read them in a linear fashion but want to spot key values immediately.

Please ignore checkpatch in this case.
