Hi Luca,
Take a look at Documentation/CodingStyle in the kernel sources. This
will cover the rules kernel code typically follows. Besides that you
might want to float the idea of PF_RING on LKML, along with PF_RING
patch, and get feedback. LKML is very crowded but most kernel developers
still scan it.
