Trivial patches should just be trivial instead of evolving into a thread
that lasts for days.
I sometimes write trivial clean up patches for things like:
arch/x86/lib/csum-partial_64.c:97 do_csum() warn: inconsistent indenting
88 /* last up to 7 8byte blocks */
89 count %= 8;
90 while (count) {
91 asm("addq %1,%0\n\t"
92 "adcq %2,%0\n"
93 : "=r" (result)
94 : "m" (*(unsigned long *)buff),
95 "r" (zero), "0" (result));
96 --count;
97 buff += 8;
98 }
Why is "buff += 8;" indented too far? And why does every line end in a
space character? And I think about it for 10 minutes and then delete my
patch because it's too much hassle to deal with for something small.
