Well, the best way to check would to remove the setting of
sh-indentation and make sure you still get the indentation you want.
However, since you're saying smie-config is nil, it seems something went
wrong.  Do you have the patched smie.elc on your load-path (i.e., does
M-x locate-library RET smie RET point to the patched version)?

Since you have the smie-config set in your custom variable block, I
can't quite see how it ended up as nil.  Is it possible something else
in your config is resetting it?
