[RFC PATCH] kvm: replace spaces with a tab

[RFC PATCH] kvm: replace spaces with a tab

[Mohamed Karaoui]

Hi list,

This is an attempt to get a feeling of sending a first patch. Please feel
free to comment.

I have few questions:

- I have build this patch against the torvalds/linux.git. Does it matter
which tree I use as long as it works on the maintainer tree?

- In this particular case I checked the maintainer. It seems that its
tree is something of 11 years old.

- Should I just go ahead and send this patch to the emails in 
./scripts/get_maintainer.pl anyway? (replacing this message of course)

I suggest working on drivers/staging/ first for basic coding style fixes
like this, as they are encouraged there, but not necessarily in other
parts of the kerenel at all.

Good luck!
