By default .m files are recognized as matlab files.

I think (in both the above cases) the necessary indentation files are 
not sourced properly. Let's try another method.

open the file by using -u NONE option

$gvim -u NONE temp/test2.m

Then paste your unindented code

Then source the appropriate matlab indentation files

On Debian this file is called as

/usr/share/vim/vim64/indent/matlab.vim

So I will be doing

:so /usr/share/vim/vim64/indent/matlab.vim

Then select all the lines with V or v or mouse etc., and then press =

Let me know if this works.
