programming-guidelines: Linux Kernel indentation style is with tabs
The reference document is a bit confusing:
https://www.kernel.org/doc/Documentation/CodingStyle
But the indentation is with tabs, with a *length* of 8 characters.
You can check the Linux kernel code, here is for example a random file:
https://git.kernel.org/cgit/linux/kernel/git/torvalds/linux.git/tree/kernel/async.c
Or in Nautilus:
https://git.gnome.org/browse/nautilus/tree/src/nautilus-application.c
https://bugzilla.gnome.org/show_bug.cgi?id=744521
