This is a series of patches to fix some trivial checkpatch issues. Not all

checkpatch prints the following warning:
WARNING: From:/Signed-off-by: email address mismatch: 'From: Franziska Naepelt <franziska.naepelt@xxxxxxxxxxxxxx>' != 'Signed-off-by: Franziska Naepelt <franziska.naepelt@xxxxxxxxx>'

I propose you change the git email matching the one that you use to send.

When testing you can compile the driver with this command:
make -C . M=drivers/staging/rtl8723bs
Typically a compile of the entire kernel is not required.

Please use the subsystem and driver also for the Subject line of the cover letter.
