Bite the bullet and reindent it by hand. I tried using both perltidy

much or getting confused about what they were supposed to be doing.

I'm not verifying that the changes are whitespace only, but this change
needs to be done.

The only downside of it for me is finding what commit to blame for
a Fixes: tag. I have no good skills for doing that.

Probably the easiest is to use "git blame -w scripts/kernel-doc", where
the -w is "ignore whitespace changes", meaning it will successfully
traverse history past this patch and attribute lines to the correct
commit.

You can also use GitHub:

https://github.com/torvalds/linux/blame/master/scripts/kernel-doc

If the specific line you are looking at gets attributed to the reindent
commit you can click on the "blame prior to change" link just next to
the line numbers (it looks a bit like this: [[[ ]) and that will give
you a view of the file before the reindent.
