I thought I have mentioned this already, but...

I compile with (at least) these:

    -Wno-pointer-to-int-cast
    -Wold-style-definition
    -Wdeclaration-after-statement

explicitly specified.

I also run kernel's checkpatch.pl script (but ignoring "more than 80-col
is too long" rule) from time to time.

I consider these are good ways to check style-discipline.
