I just happen to think that this patch introduces the right way to configure Emacs for kernel coding style. Adding a custom style like this ("linux-tabs-only") makes it much easier to switch between different indent styles and also to use the kernel style elsewhere. So, I'll just ping the lists and maintainers this one more time to see if someone is interested.
