It's not necessary. The rule is just complaining about this:

SET_CHECKED(rf69_set_bandwidth (dev->spi, rx_cfg->bw_mantisse, rx_cfg->bw_exponent));
^
There is a space after the 'h' character. The old code has
"[space][tab][tab][space](dev->spi,..." it should be:
"[tab][tab][space](dev->spi, ..."

Also the rules are there to improve readability. Sometimes they're
debatable but if they make readability worse, then we can ignore the
rules.
