Thank you for your contribution. It has the following problems:

- the context has been mangled by your email client, replacing tabs with
  spaces, so the patch does not apply. I recommend that you use git
  send-email for sending patches.

- patches to netdev must always be formatted against the most recent
  main branches of net.git or net-next.git trees (depending on whether
  they are bug fixes impacting users or just general refactoring/new
  features), and your intention to target one tree or the other must be
  made through the --subject-prefix "PATCH vN net" or "PATCH vN
  net-next" option. Look at other messages in the archive for a hint:
  https://lore.kernel.org/netdev/

- it lacks the "Developer's Certificate of Origin" (the signed-off tag
  generated by "git commit -s").

- it lacks a proper prefix for the commit title indicating the area of
  the code. A better commit title would have been: "net: dsa: sja1105:
  NET_DSA_SJA1105 tristate text is not indented"

- a good commit body (the part after the one-line title) contains:
  1. Context
  2. Problem
  3. Solution
  Yours is empty. The scripts/checkpatch.pl tool should warn about this,
  if you run it.

I would recommend reading a bit what's in the Documentation/process/
folder before resubmitting a v2, I may have missed some finer aspects.
