branch: https://git.buildroot.net/buildroot/commit/?id=refs/heads/master
The advantages of using a pre-existing coding style instead of creating
our own are:
- documenting on the manual takes a single sentence;
- there are automatic tools to help during development/review.
So document that PEP8 recommendation should be followed.
