So it's a judgement call, and here IMHO it's easier on the eyes and
more straightforward when entry->size-1 is grouped together visually,
which is the offset of the last byte in this E820 region.
I don't agree with the mindless conversion patches that do this
indiscriminately:
s/x-1
/x - 1
Typographically and stylistically there's nothing wrong with 'x-1'.
In fact the grouping has advantages, for example this hypothethical
buggy piece of code:
addr_next - size-1
is much more obviously incorrect 'at a glance' during review than this
one:
addr_next - size - 1
Thanks,
