Please realign the continuation line so it starts after the opening
bracket.

Same here.

In case some code is added between the check and the return statement
it'd be better to fix this by replacing the second return rc with
return 0:

	if (rc) {
		nfc_err(...);
		return rc;
	}

	return 0;

IMO having the assignment before the call is more readable, please
leave as is.
