Fixes various warnings from empty spaces.

This is the first patch I submit, so I'm not completely sure if I'm
doing it right. If this is correct I might start submitting more
subtantial patches. If it is wrong, please tell me what did I do
wrong, so I can learn.

Your patches are based against the wrong directory. They should use the -p1 option for patch, so that they can be applied when the home directory is the root of the kernel tree. For example, the first two lines of each file patch should be

--- a/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_cmd.c
+++ b/drivers/staging/rtl8188eu/core/rtw_cmd.c

In addition, the subject of the patch should include the driver name. In your case, it should be
