You conveniently forgot to show that Linus said that it's OK for a subsystem maintainer to request that kind of coding style, it's just not OK to impose it tree-wide. Any particular reason you guys make such a big deal about this whereas everyone else is quite fine with it and never gives me any problems? In the end, this hurts bluetooth, because if you anger me that means it's going to be harder and take longer for your changes to get into the tree. You can ignore this pracitcal aspect of this whole ordeal at your own peril.
