Please use checkpatch. Always. There's just no reason not to. Sure,
you can make a decision to ignore some of its reports, but at least
this avoids the accidental introduction of layout problems.

For better or for worse, the developers of dm.c have chosen to keep the
whole file presentable in an 80-col display. This patch breaks that,
and they might not like this.

This will provide no more information than the oops which will happen
two lines later.

well, that will provide a little bit of information I guess.

This (unused, undocumented) function should be inlined.
