Huh?

CodingStyle says:

  Now, again, GNU indent has the same brain-dead settings that GNU emacs
  has, which is why you need to give it a few command line options.

It also says try using scripts/Lindent.  Have you tried it?
It won't be perfect either, AFAI recall, but it might help.

or you could try emacs (as indicated in CodingStyle).  Good luck with that.
