Hello Ryder.

One option is to perform all the whitespace corrections
in a single patch and then show that the object files
have not changed.

I posted a trivial script several years ago that might
be of some help here.

https://lore.kernel.org/lkml/1405128087.6751.12.camel@joe-AO725/

It trivially reformats using checkpatch and produces a
possible set of changes that can be used to update a
git tree.
