This makes the line longer than 80 characters, that is worse than the 'problem' you are fixing.

Jes

Hello jes,

How it can be worse because checkpatch treating this as an Error and line longer than 80 character is warning reported by checkpatch and I could see that in entire staging directory,
every maintainer most of the time ignore the 80 column limit and give priority to Error.

Please let me know your comment .
