The tab size is 8 by definition. I see that AMBA_PL011 does it
different, but the other indent with tabs.

You've found the answer yourself :) We don't do pointer derefs to iomem
in C but use readl/writel instead.

Don't know.

Just fixing the coding style because it's bad is usually not done,
because "git blame" will tell you about the coding style fixer not about
the coder of that line.

The rule of thumb is: Don't introduce new code with bad style. If you
touch code fixing the style in a separate patch before you bring in your
changes is usually accepted.
