[PATCH] Docs: Fix elisp code so tabbing more than once works

The example elisp code breaks tabbing more than once on the same line. Aligning
equal signs in a struct becomes problematic. Fix it.

                 (setq indent-tabs-mode t)

 This will make emacs go better with the kernel coding style for C
 files below ~/src/linux-trees.

This prevents easy indentation alignment via the tab key.
Try using "ctrl-q tab" instead.
