Opinons vary.
Very few function declaration/definitions in the linux kernel use the
one line per argument style (gnu indent -bfde)
type function(
type argument1,
type argument2,
...
)
{
...
}
It probably shouldn't be encouraged.

Always a possibility but probably not a good one here as even
renaming channel_idx to idx doesn't make it < 80 columns
