When doing so use checkpatch only as a hint generator and do
not concentrate only on the warnings/errors generated by checkpatch.

Your patch is an improvement but please fix the remaining issues.

For example..

Add spaces around [off+1] so it looks like this: [off + 1]

Same here: [pos >> 8]

And here: (pos & 0xFF)
