You've made changes to automatically generated files, so all the style 
changes
would be overwritten when next time these files are generated -- all the 
files go through
Lindent, and almost all your changes were introduced by it. If you 
really want to make
style changes to ACPICA files, try to play with Lindent, so it produce 
what you want.
If you have anything beside style patches, please submit them separately

Regards,
Alex.
