Dwaipayan already wanted to pick up the work on the GIT_COMMIT_ID issues.
So, he is working on that already.

This is probably much more interesting to get involved in...

Some background information is in the kernel documentation; some
further information can be found on this presentation,
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=FFjV9f_Ub9o, starting at 2:09.


You can start with running clang-format on the kernel sources just to
get a first feeling on what the tool does and where it completely
changes the code, and especially those cases where it changes code
that was perfectly okay before, we should do something to
adjust/configure clang-format.

Mid term goal: If we find a directory that needs no changes with
clang-format (after configuring), then it would be worth informing the
maintainers that clang-format works for them.
