Yes, this should be caught automatically, and David M. has already proposed
a patch to automatically check for this [1].

For your patch specifically, most of the tabs need to be replaced by
4-chars rather than 8-chars of space. The last indent (drivers/net/ice) is
the one exception, I believe, and requires an 8-space indent.
