Hi Peter,

Here are my comments. Now, it is mostly nitpicks. I guess that this is
the final round.

Merge the declaration with the initialization.
If I merge initialization into declaration, it's may violation RCT?
How could I change about this ?
@Michal: You requested RTC in:

https://lore.kernel.org/linux-can/ZBgKSqaFiImtTThv@localhost.localdomain/

I looked at the kernel documentation but I could not find "Reverse
Chistmas Tree". Can you point me to where this is defined?

In the above case, I do not think RCT should apply.

I think that this:

struct net_device *netdev = priv->netdev;
struct net_device_stats *stats = &netdev->stats;

Is better than that:

struct net_device *netdev = priv->netdev;
struct net_device_stats *stats;

stats = &netdev->stats;

Arbitrarily splitting the definition and assignment does not make sense to me.

Thank you for your comments.

The RCT coding style seems a bit confuse. How about refactoring of next step? @Marc ?


Thanks,
