As I was looking at the patches, I saw at least one checkpatch.pl
alignment place to fix, so please cover those in v2.

Conceptually, I'm OK with this. I need to throw the series at a world
build before/after and see what the fallout is on not-enabled platforms.
I'm assuming that once this gets where I can throw Coverity at it, it
will complain about a few things too.

Before posting v2, please throw this though CI too, I'm pretty sure I
saw a documentation style problem that would blow up there. Thanks!
