What tells the coding style about whitespaces at end of lines or in *empty* lines ?

If that is to become a policy, simply append:
// Local Variables:
// whitespace-global-mode
// indent-tabs-mode:t
// tab-width:8
// c-basic-offset:4
// End:

At the end of each file. This way, emacs will enforce this policy for 
all such files. The beauty of this is that different files may enforce 
different policies. This allows consistency in old files without 
re-indenting them, it allows different policies for different sub-projects.
