Are you sure ? Michael suggested PERF || KVM as far as I remember.

style is not defined on a per file basis. There is the style from the 
past and the nowadays style. If you keep old style just because the file 
includes old style statements, then the code will never improve.

All new patches should come with clean 'checkpatch' report and follow 
new style. Having mixed styles in a file is not a problem, that's the 
way to improvement. See arch/powerpc/mm/mmu_decl.h as an exemple.

Right, then it maybe means set_dawr() should be fixes ?

Right, but could be an improvment for another patch.
As far as I remember you are the one who wrote that code at first place, 
arent't you ?

Right, but I think the comments are worth it, allthough that would be 
for another patch.

Yes I can but it will conflict with your patch.
