Better, but problems remain (not sure about line endings, didn't check
before). It seems the tabs got more rather than getting replaced with
four spaces. (And QEMU regressed to Qemu.)

For future patches you may find the following helpful to detect formal
errors early yourself (git commit --no-verify overrides):
