Oops, yes.
After fixing that, checkpatch also complains about a couple of long
lines (mcdi.c:1207-8).  Am I right in thinking that it's being
overzealous and is best ignored in this case?  Alternatively I suppose
the expression starting 'port_num ? ' could go in a local variable;
would that be clearer?
