I think eliminating checkpatch identified issues should
not be the primary goal but a secondary one to the
overall goal of code style uniformity.

Julia Lawall and Himangi Saraogi from coccinelle fame
have created a "detypedef" script that is useful for
structs, perhaps you could extend it for unions and
run it over this lustre code.

For instance:
