Hi Shay, it is might be surprising that indentation style actually
differs slightly in different parts of the kernel. I started in
networking area of the kernel, and I was also surprised when I started
working in MM area that the coding style differs. I can tell you that
the indentation style Mel choose is consistent with the code styling in
MM area. I usually respect that even-though I prefer the networking
style as I was "raised" with that style.
