staging: gpib: Fix erroneous removal of blank before newline
The USB_GPIB_SET_LINES command string used to be: "\nIBDC \n" but when we were merging this code into the upstream kernel we deleted the space character before the newline to make checkpatch happy. That turned out to be a mistake. The "\nIBDC" part of the string is a command that we pass to the firmware and the next character is a variable u8 value. It gets set in set_control_line(). msg[leng - 2] = value ? (retval & ~line) : retval | line; where leng is the length of the command string. Imagine the parameter was supposed to be "8". With the pre-merge code the command string would be "\nIBDC8\n" With the post-merge code the command string became "\nIBD8\n" The firmware doesn't recognize "IBD8" as a valid command and rejects it. Putting a "." where the parameter is supposed to go fixes the driver and makes checkpatch happy. Same thing with the other define and the in-line assignment.
