I agree here:

1. Cosmetic changes just complicate merging branches with really
   useful changes. They are complicate backporting fixes to
   stable kernels.

2. Cosmetic changes are material for bikeshedding. Some people might
   prefer the original code because it is better readable for them...

3. The authors of cosmetic changes will not learn much by this.
   Also it will also not help much to gain any reputation.

Best Regards,
Petr
