Hi Valdis,

thanks for your response.

I am working on rtl8192e in the staging area. Reason is that the 
hardware is commonly available and this driver will be used a long time 
from now.

This driver is not removed from the staging area without cleaning up 
checkpatch errors. Main issue with the long variable names is that the 
snake_case is making the names even longer. So when having a chance to 
shortem them this will improve readability for the bigger tasks.

Yes but we need to start somewhere. Yes I do like to do more than what I 
did so far (remove dead code, fix checkpatch errors, remove ftrace like 
logging) up to now.

Do you know what issues that are and a way to improve this? I do like to 
know what is next.

Thanks for your support.

Bye Philipp
