I was just giving an impromptu lecture on this last week.... The one
thing per patch means we cleanup the fallout that results from the
change. So if you rename a function then you have re-indent the
parameters etc. If you remove a cast from (type)(foo + bar) then
remove all the extra parentheses and so on.
(I don't have strong feelings about this patch, but I have just been
trying to explain the one thing rule recently).
