No doubt, but that wasn't my point.

No.  It's just a guideline.  As far as I'm concerned,
ignore every checkpatch message you don't agree with.

Just be aware that there's a tool to help you get your
code looking more like what most others generally consider
"kernel style".

Though when you add "new" code, stuff like

	> +     u32 sdio_reg_addr_17bit ;

is untidy because of the space before the semicolon.
