Hi Stefan, it's good to hear from you.

Overall, it's pretty churny. More below:

Not breaking printouts is a case where long-ish lines are ok. Changing 
the output to be less clear and useful just to make the line short is a 
regression in my mind.

Regarding the comment format, adding extra lines for */ on a two-line 
comment is a bit overkill.

Sorry to be this way, but I just don't agree with this patch. It just 
feels like churn to me.

Alan.

Same goes to you. It has been a while. Pretty fast turnaround time for mrf24 patches this time. :P

You are the native speaker but if I compare the two sentences they do not really look less clear and useful to me.
But well, different perceptions. :)

One thing I wondered when looking at this hunk was if this case can actually happen? Can we really get a length here greater than
TX_FIFO_SIZE-2?

Well, it simply is the kernel coding style. Imagine multi-line comments outside of net/ and drivers/net/ also have an /* on a new line at
the beginning. :-)

Given the tiny amount of patches mrf24 sees over time I would not go as far as calling this churn as it is highly unlikely to conflict with
anything else pending.

I do not mind dropping this patch if you do not want it, though. No problem from my side.
