That's ok. It was just funny that a patch which prevents
data transfer overflow introduces a line overflow :-)

The tabs in patches 6 and 7 are more problematic.
Although they are not at the start of the line, tabs
should be completely avoided (that's my personal
understanding of QEMU's coding rules).

Existing code which violates that rule is no reason to
add more code with tabs. Exceptions should be possible
for code imported from other projects, maybe also
when existing code with tabs is extended.

But what is even more important than those tabs is
getting the fixes in qemu 1.1. I pulled them just
to see whether my scsi problem was fixed, and it's
git and checkpatch.pl which complains, not me :-)

Cheers,
Stefan
