SubjectRe: [Cluster-devel] [PATCH 00/12] drop unneeded newline
----- Original Message -----

| Hi Julia,
|
| NACK.
|
| As much as it's a pain when searching the source code for output strings,
| this patch set goes against the accepted Linux coding style document. See:
|
| https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/v4.10/process/coding-style.html#breaking-long-lines-and-strings

Hm. I guess I stand corrected. The document reads:

"However, never break user-visible strings such as printk messages, because that breaks the ability to grep for them."

Still, the GFS2 and DLM code has a plethora of broken-up printk messages,
and I don't like the thought of re-combining them all.

Regards,

Bob Peterson
