I agree that other patches are more important than code formatting.
However, we may also enable more people to contribute to jffs2 if the
code is as readable/understandable as possible. I want to help make a
small, but tangible step in that direction.

Since there appears to be at least some benefit, maybe we can do this in
easy to digest pieces. I have made another patch just against the files
concerning compression in jffs2. These files had a lot of problems and I
do not believe they conflict with any of the main outstanding patches
(ebh, xattr, centsum).
Thanks to Jörn and Artem for their feedback; it is much appreciated.
