When doing this change, could you please align the above line to the
open parenthesis of process_ipsec (even-though it was also misaligned
before).

scripts/checkpatch.pl will tell you:
 CHECK: Alignment should match open parenthesis	

Did anyone tell you that kernel developers nitpick? ;-)

And usually you don't need to Cc the "main" Linux Kernel Mailing List
(linux-kernel@vger.kernel.org) with a trivial patch like this.  Sending
it to the network developers should be enough (netdev@vger.kernel.org).
