I understand why you would prefer such an interpretation...  But the
fact is, you are adding new code that contains typedef's (and it does
not matter at all if other code in other places does the same or not).


Please don't misunderstand me - I can accept if you prefer not to fix
this problem now, but rather address it later, in a separate patch.
But it is technically wrong to claim you were not adding new
typedef's.   Checkpatch complains not without reason.

Best regards,

Wolfgang Denk
