For things like this, you can sometimes check to see
what is the most common usage in the source:
[linux-2.6.12.2]$ find . -name "*.[ch]" -exec grep "if (\![a-z]" {} \; | wc -l
36936
[linux-2.6.12.2]$ find . -name "*.[ch]" -exec grep "if (\![ ]" {} \; | wc -l
1206
Looks like "no space" is far more common and is
probably preferred.
