I find this split (white-space changes only first, code style changes
then) pretty logical. I would suggest to combine patches 1 + 2 because
they belong together, and the split was done only to keep the size of
the patch within the soft-limit of this mailing list.

I would not fight against combining all 3 into a single commit, but I
don't think it would make the code any better - just harder to follow
the changes.

I suggest not to do this, then - just combine 1+2 regardless of the
mailing list limit, and rebase.

Thanks.

Any sufficiently advanced bug is indistinguishable from a feature.
