"Non-functional changes, i.e. whitespace and reformatting changes, should be
done in separate patches marked as cosmetic. This separation of functional and
cosmetic changes greatly facilitates the review process."

(granted, I didn't explicitly mark the patches as cosmetic)

I read that as a general permission to post style-fix patches. If there's a
different consensus, I'd like the page modified accordingly.
