That's not actually true: there's ~7 functions in kernel/sched/completion.c 
with local variables, and only ~2 have this minor stylistic inconsistency 
right now AFAICS. Scheduler-wide the ratio is even lower.

So even if a patch doesn't entirely remove the residual noise, let's not 
add to it, please?

Thanks,
