Sorry for the mangled patch. :(

It seems Thunderbird add an extra space to the beginning of the line.
e.g.
[space][tab]local_irq_save(flags);
was changed to
[space][space][tab]local_irq_save(flags);

I've reconfigured the Thunderbird according to

http://www.gelato.unsw.edu.au/archives/git/0508/7750.html

Will resubmit the patches later.
