The coding style needs fixing in various ways.

Hard tabs need to be used, no spaces inside brackets, but should include
spaces between if/while/for and bracket, and bracket and brace:
    if (foo) {
Not
    if( foo ){
    if(foo ) {
Or various other possibilities.

No use of the following please:
If (foo) return 1; else return 0;
Is clearer as:
Return foo;

There's a (good) idiom for error handling in Linux:
If (!error) {
    page of code;
} else {
    oh no, error, print and return;
}
Should be changed to:
If (error) {
    handle error, bail if necessary
}
Page of code, no longer indented by error check;

Apart from the various coding style bits, accelerator_probe_vifs_on_load()
walks the vif_states list with no lock held. Is this safe against the list
changing?
