(I'm fixing the patch before respinning, hence it's me asking)

Not sure I understand. Indentation here matches the same style as that
for kvm_gmem_get_pfn() right above it in the alignment of the
parameters, i.e., the parameter `gfn_t gfn` is aligned with the
parameter `const struct kvm_memory_slot *slot` (four tabs and a
space).
