I'm fine with putting it on its own line if that's your preference.
Agreed that it might be a bit cleaner, especially for functions with the
return type on its own line, so we'd have e.g.:

BPF_KFUNC(
struct nf_conn *
bpf_skb_ct_lookup(struct __sk_buff *skb_ctx, struct bpf_sock_tuple *bpf_tuple,
u32 tuple__sz, struct bpf_ct_opts *opts, u32 opts__sz)
) {

// ...

}

Note the presence of the { on the closing paren. Are you ok with that?
Otherwise I think it will look a bit odd:

BPF_KFUNC(
struct nf_conn *
bpf_skb_ct_lookup(struct __sk_buff *skb_ctx, struct bpf_sock_tuple *bpf_tuple,
u32 tuple__sz, struct bpf_ct_opts *opts, u32 opts__sz)
)
{

}

Thanks,
David
