Reading ./Documentation/CodingStyle I see: +++++++ Outside of comments, documentation and except in Kconfig, spaces are never used for indentation, and the above example is deliberately broken. +++++++ Or looking at the last 3 of Linus' commits that use multi-line expressions, none of them uses mixed tabs+spaces to have lined-up indentation (which is what you recommend): e419b4cc585680940bc42f8ca8a071d6023fb1bb vfs: make word-at-a-time... 6be5ceb02e98eaf6cfc4f8b12a896d04023f340d VM: Add "vm_mmap" helper... a554bea89948dfb6d2f9c4c62ce2b12b2dac18ad selinux: don't inline...

That's just old code that is reindented. Nothing special.
