[PATCH 0/2] code style exercise: Drivers folder samples



Hello, everybody!

As agreed before [1] I am sending a series to show two samples of the
formatting done with clang-format. The clang-format configuration can be
found at [2]. It already has some notes on previous discussions when
Luca presented his version of that configuration and which I used to
start from.

There are two diff files which show what happens in case the same is
applied to the whole xen/drivers directory:
- first one is the result of the "git diff" command, 1.2M [3]
- the second one is for "git diff --ignire-all-space", 600K [4]

This is not to limit the reviewers from seeing a bigger picture and not
only the files in this series.
N.B. xen/drivers uses tabs a lot, so this is no surprise the size
difference is big enough: roughly space conversion is half of the changes.

While reviewing the changes I have collected some of the unexpected things
done by clang-format and some interesting pieces. You can find those
below. For some of those I have filed an issue on clang-format and hope the
community will lead me in resolving those. Of course what I collected is
not the complete list of such changes, so I hope we can discuss missed
ones here.

>From this exercise I can definitely tell that clang-format does help a
lot and has potential to be employed as a code formatting tool for Xen.
Of course it cannot be used as is now and will require discussions on the
Xen coding style and possibly submitting patches to clang-format to
satisfy those which cannot be handled by the tool now.

Stay safe,
Oleksandr Andrushchenko

1. Const string arrays reformatting
In case the length of items change we might need to introduce a bigger
change wrt new formatting of unaffected lines
