Thanks for taking the time to look at this. I might let it be, since it's
made it into linux-next-20181019 fine - I got an email from Greg KH to that
effect as well.
That said, I'll be a bit more careful next time round, just in case
someone's manually fixed up the whitespace without telling me. Thanks for
the pointer to the email docs, but unfortunately my client isn't covered
there. Still, I've used it as a guide for the kind of settings I need,
hopefully my patches won't get mangled from now on.
- Will
