I can do that but it does not seem common and also checkpatch
did not complain about this - now a simple grep -re "\*10" on the
kernel shows that it seems more common not to use spaces around *
that to use them. Greping specifically for cases using usleep_range()
(not that many) it seems more or less evenly devided between space
and no space - so the concern is overlooking that factor 2 ?

thx!
