So I just wanted to confirm, but I think spaces after tab are fine for 
alignment, right? I found this 
(https://www.mail-archive.com/kernelnewbies@kernelnewbies.org/msg13354.html) 
message in mailing list stating that it is fine.

It seems clang-format adds spaces for alignment less than 8 spaces. And 
checkpatch doesn't seem to complain as long as spaces are used for 
alignment (not indentation).
