KNF stands for Kernel Normal Form, but it's a shorthand for
NetBSD's coding conventions, ref. /usr/share/misc/style. I
didn't follow it completely through, since this is third-party
code. Most touch-ups were just whitespace-related (e.g. no
whitespace after function name or casts).

You're absolutely correct. However, one out of two isn't all bad
either, as "n" can never go negative. :-) I'll remove the
superfluous test shortly.
