That's not my code ;-)

You mean s/functions/structures/. Yes, that's what most people prefer, I
think.

AFAIK, there is just one coding style rule about alignment:
http://lxr.linux.no/#linux+v2.6.37/Documentation/CodingStyle#L208
So feel free to choose the style you like but use if consequently.
I complain because I'm browsing the code anyway. It's definitely not
something worth to reject the patches.
Wolfgang.
