in general this patch looks good except a few nits, maybe wait for 
Alexandre's feedback.
After fixing the nits you can add my:

Sorry for my misleading wording. I meant in this case 1 tab and align 
the rest with spaces just like the other.

Please try to keep the value order. I know it's already messed up, 
Gregor Herburger send a patch which already address the existing order 
("firmware: raspberrypi: reorder rpi_firmware_property_tag enum").
