Hi Stephen, Welcome to the Linux kernel. Great that you have put in a patch, you are, however, unlikely to see success fixing 'line over 80' warnings. There are a bunch of arguments for and against the line over 80 limit, a web search will surely show them to you. The TL;DR is that it these changes do not _really_ improve the readability of the code, they are just changes to quiet the static analysis tool. There are a bunch of other white space fixes that are more beneficial, perhaps you could wet your feet with these (incorrect placement of parenthesis for example). Good luck, Tobin.
