Still has { here so you didn't even compile this? Also I think you
should make one patch for whole EFS. Just change one type of thing at 
ones. Like

[Patch 1/X] fs/efs: Remove braces from single statments
[Patch 2/X] fs/efs: Add space after C keywords 
[Patch 3/X] fs/efs: Fix code indent levels 

That way it is super easy to review them. Also because there is no
maintainer it is kind of scary to accept patches. Specially when lot of
different kind of things are changed. 

Please also send your patches against cover letter. If you have problem
with your email client plese take a look git send-email. This will work
beautiful for all of this.

And because you are new (i think). Welcome.
