Wow, such deep discussion for such a trivial patch!
I say we take it, mostly because I personally prefer being permissive if there's nothing technically wrong with a patch, but also because I'm swayed by the other comments.
That being said, I agree with Johan--the patch would be improved with a little better comment about what motivated the submission. So I'll wait for v2.

It is pretty much personal preference and there is no good reason to accept this patch really.
Checkpatch complains, so it's Official Kernel Style now.
The != NULL comparison is a double negative which makes it not less annoying than official kernel style.
