No problem at all.

Ok, I missed that one and remembered only the if-styling. I'll change it and 
I'm glad to see that as it's according to my style.

Well, thanks but I think I've to "share the price" with at least one other:
drivers/usb/misc/phidgetservo.c

I agree that this is no excuse for bad style, but I was just trying to keep 
the code compliant with the kernel coding conventions - my personal style 
looks a bit different anyway. I tried to avoid any formatting issues by 
looking at other drivers and the one mentioned above was recommended to me 
when I did the porting from ioctls to sysfs. Due to this I assumed that this 
might be a common way you guys try to avoid redundant code...

To be sure (and because he's the author of the USB skeleton I also used) I 
asked Greg K-H for an initial review of my code before I sent it to the list, 
and he didn't complain a bit about this marco. So is there any common rule 
for this?

Hm, the chipset family is just called like that and there're at least three 
other Cypress related drivers (cypress, cypress_m8 and cytherm) with generic 
names. I think this name shows clearly what kind of device it supports, 
doesn't it?

Apart from that there are again other drivers (ark3116.c, cp2101.c) which do 
it the same way, and I assumed that this might be some sort of naming 
convention...

You mean the whole string (line) one character to the right, correct?
