You are right ! This will be deleted from the patch.

I thought you expected just one tab and spaces. You said :
"Better use tab + spaces and align on the opening parenthesis. What
checkpatch.pl complains about here isn't the alignment, it's the use of
more than 8 consecutive spaces."
I understood here : "don't care about this warning !"

So, I'll fix it.
