Re: [PATCH] net: can: af_can.c: Fix checkpatch warnings

[Oliver Hartkopp]

Hallo Valentin,

thanks for the idea for the cleanup.

But if you replace the the printk() statements it's worth to check if code
fits into a single line now, e.g.

here " ,proto);" can obviously be move into the previous line while preserving
the 80 chars per line rule.

As i've seen in former patches from Joe Perches OOM messages are obsolete.

You could write

if(!d)
	return NOTIFY_DONE;

here instead.
