SubjectRe: Indent issus in kernel module development
From
Yes, I just tried `scripts/Lindent` and it has the same problem.

I had compared the source of `Lindent` with `-linux` option of
`indent` long time ago, there's seems no major difference.
So i used `indent -linux <file>` above.

Thanks for your advice about `emace`, but `vi` is my only editor for
dozens of years.
