Documentation/CodingStyle doesn't mention this.  Does the networking 
stack have its own special requirements, not listed in CodingStyle?

P.S: The standard I have tried to follow for USB code is to indent
continuation lines by two tab stops more than the first line,
regardless of whether the break occurs inside a function call.  I have
seen other people consistently indent continuation lines by 1/2 tab
stop (i.e., four spaces) beyond the first line.
