It is always wrong to write 'return (...)'.

After removal, realign the code where necessary.

In your imagination.

Those parenthesis are there to make the evaluation order and
grouping explicit.

The other ones you changed are wrong for similar reasons.

I absolutely am not applying patches like this.

BTW This should use a faster implementation, I'll send a patch when
net-next is opened.

There seems to be a few spots where we want the pointer "as a 32-bit
integer" for hashing.  We were discussing arp_hashfn() and ndisc_hashfn()
the other day.

It should basically do something like:

	(u32) ((u64)ptr >> 32 | ((u32) ptr))

on 64-bit and simply (u32)(ptr) on 32-bit.

Barring the speed issue raised by Eric Dumazet, this patch is correct.

To illustrate, the patch merely changes

	return (A);

to

	return A;

where A is nothing but an expression, regardless if it is a simple one
or a compound one.

Whatever A is, it evaluates to a value. The parentheses do _not_
contribute to the evaluation. They do not alter precedence. They do not
make the evaluation order explicit. They are there to serve no purpose,
yet they do make return statement look like a function call.

Moreover, A is one single entity. It does not group with anything else.
I really don't see the significance of making A a group by itself.

Thank you for reviewing the patch. With all due respect, your assessment
is hard to agree with this moment.

Life is not black and white my friend, there are shades
of gray.  I feel bad for you if you read coding style rules
in a %100 literal sense with no room for interpretation.

People add extra parenthesis to add clarity, so you are
entirely misrepresenting these cases.

This was not a simple case of:

	return (A);

but more like something that looks as:

	return ((A & B) | (C ^ D));

and that is perfectly fine.
