Thanks, applied to qom-next:

For the record, Peter's request here was to not propagate such stylistic
changes unneccessarily throughout old code. In these two cases on one
line I added the missing opening brace and on the other I had to change
the variable name so it does not add to the patch.

Both styles are valid C and can be expected to produce identical machine
code with an optimizing compiler.

What we might do though is assist the compiler in determining which code
paths are likely() vs. unlikely(). For stylistic reasons I prefer to
have the unlikely error case in the if, e.g. in cpu_sh4_init(). These
are not hot paths though so it shouldn't matter much.
