Yes, please do the coding style cleanup first, and the "real" patch later in a 
separate commit. Otherwise it will very hard to make out your changes in the 
commit-diff.

This is my way of coding too. Mainly because I'm used to doing it this way and 
Linux uses it too. But I know that Wolfgang prefers the "other" style. My 
vote would be, when you really run Lindent on this file (or other), switch to 
the Linux style completely.

Best regards,
Stefan
