My preference would be to do all the horizontal whitespace
changes for the entire driver in one go without worrying
about long lines.

$ git ls-files -- 'drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/*.[ch]' | \
xargs ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --types=SPACING --fix-inplace
$ git diff -w drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/
$ git diff --shortstat drivers/staging/rtl8188eu
35 files changed, 603 insertions(+), 603 deletions(-)

Mention that git diff -w shows no difference and
verify that object files are unchanged and mention
both in the changelog.

Subject could be something like:
