Hello

I wanted to send a patch. not a big one. So, i read SubmittingPatches,
CodingStyle , SubmitcheckList , patch format by jeff garzik, ( i tried
to find the perfect patch , but the url was broken ) and
stable_kernel_rules.txt.
I wanted to make sure I do not break any rule. so i picked a random
file, I ran scripts/Lindent
and it was too different from the original. i tried "indent -kr -i8"
and it was worst.
Why aren't you running automatic Lindent  ?
How a newbie like me is supposed not to break any coding style rule ?
I use vim, not emacs . Do you have a vim configuration file for guys like me ?
I truly hope I am not "pissing off a kernel subsystem maintainer"

thank you
