If automated scripts exist to change all the code to that new
'one true way', it wouldn't be applied.

I think nobody is saying we should reformat all code at once, just
that agreeing on a given style allows us to eventually automate it (it
also makes humans more likely to be consistent).

I just want to know what style to use to not have it NAKed by Linus. ;)

But yeah, it might be nice to do style checking against the kernel some
day. We have a lot of weird stuff in here, though! *slaps roof of kernel*
