They aren't aligned with the indent block so it's easy to tell the inside from the if condition.
I came across this while sending patches to libnvdimm subsystem. W.r.t coding Style can we have consistent styles across the kernel? Otherwise, one would have to change the editor settings as they work across different subsystems in the kernel. In this specific case both clang-format and emacs customization tip in the kernel documentation directory suggest the later style.
