  Based off of Linux kernel style with some local modifications
and DPDK foreach macros.

A couple of open questions to be resolved befor merging.
Is GPL license ok for config file (inherited from Linux here)?
Do we want to have per-driver files for some drivers (like MLX5)?

This may be partially a matter of personal preference, but I disagree with
using this setting. This sets up line continuations with varaible widths,
and leads to:
* continuation lines being very short if the function name in a wrapped
  call is long
* indentation using a mix of tabs and spaces as it tries to line up exactly
  on a column with brackets

I think a better option for this setting, which is also aligned with our
coding rules, is for this to be set to "DontAlign" and the
"ContinuationIndentWidth" set to 16, leading to double-tab continuations
(at least in my testing).

i find alignment to open bracket terrible. it also blows out to
multiple line diffs if something like a function name is changed
and there are parameters on following lines.
