This prompted me to look at this, and this is wrong: it
overrides my local emacs config with something that gets
some bits of style wrong :-( Indeed there's one in QEMU
now I see, and that is why my emacs behaviour has regressed.
For instance given

static const VMStateDescription cmsdk_apb_uart_vmstate = {
    .name = "cmsdk-apb-uart",
    .version_id = 1,
    .minimum_version_id = 1,
    .fields = (VMStateField[]) {
        VMSTATE_END_OF_LIST()


with cursor on the blank line at the end, if I type '}' then I get
     }\n
(ie the cursor moves to a new line) but the cursor should
stay after the '}' so I can type the ','.

thanks
