This is what clang-format yields. Are you thinking it would be better to line everything up with the ( in uffd_error( ?
Yeah, sometimes clang-format cannot do a good job with the 80 column limit + 8 tabs.
You are definitely not forced to follow clang-format output by any means. Subsystem maintainers decide what style they prefer anyway, which could range from a manual approach to following clang-format strictly. Clang-format implements the general kernel style as closely as we could get it so far (it will improve more in the future when we raise the minimum clang-format version required). See Doc/process/clang-format.rst.
Or, perhaps this case is a good reason to make uffd_error() a variadic macro so we can insert "-EEXIST" || "error" with a "%s".
...and indeed, sometimes it is a hint that simplifying things could help :-)
