From c20b139620498b2f158b52e0c4ad7f6de35a520e Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Paolo Bonzini Date: Fri, 21 Jun 2019 13:28:54 +0200 Subject: checkpatch: do not warn for multiline parenthesized returned value While indeed we do not want to have return (a); it is less clear that this applies to return (a && b); Some editors indent more nicely if you have parentheses, and some people's eyes may appreciate that as well.
