see /usr/src/linux/Documentation/CodingStyle for a description of the Kernel
Style. There are a few line of emacs (lisp) code included in this file to
setup your emacs editor to conform with it. For jed, use the following
settings:
C_INDENT = 8;
C_BRACE = 0;
C_BRA_NEWLINE = 0;
C_CONTINUED_OFFSET = 8;

I put these in my .jedrc.

My version of jed sometimes gets confused by certain characters within
comment (or whatever), so it's indentation sometime doesn't work as expected.
