+1 to existing Linux kernel style. Moreover, its a style which is used heavily in existing code base. I don't see any advantage in changing the style now.

ISTR we agreed to use Linux kernel style!
Which is
if (foo) {
/* ... */
} else {
/* ... */
}
I don't recall any discussion on -devel about changing this.

hi,
Why are we moving away from this coding style?:
if (x) {
/*code*/
} else {
/* code */
}
This patch (in master) introduces the same and explains why,

extras: reverse test for '}' vs. following 'else' placement
The two-line form "}\nelse {" has been more common than the
one-line
form "} else {" in our code for years, and IMO for good reason (see
the comment in the diff).
if/else block? I just don't want to get any errors in 'check-formatting'
when I write the old way for this.
May be we can change it to warning?
I am going to state my experience/expectation :)
I actually got this _error_ when submitting a patch, and thought to
myself "isn't the one-line form the right one?" then went to see why
this check was in place and read the above. Going by the reason in the
patch, I just adapted myself.
Now, coming to _allowing_ both forms with a warning, my personal call
is _no_, we should allow one form so that the code is readable and
there is little to no confusion for others on which form to use. So I
would say no to your proposal.
to talk more about this.
Jeff/Vijay,
I urge you guys to notify others before making basic style
changes like this.
