[PATCH v1] treewide: Fix indentation and whitespace in Kconfig files

Anand Moon
2026-04-07T05:40:01Z

Clean up inconsistent indentation (mixing tabs and spaces) and remove
extraneous whitespace in several Kconfig files across the tree.
This is a purely cosmetic change to improve readability.

Adjust indentation from spaces to tab (+optional two spaces) as in
coding style with command like:

$ sed -e 's/^ /\t/' -i */Kconfig
