It sort of takes a while to test the randconfig thing... diff -w doesn't catch every single issue. For example: http://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-driver-devel/msg78707.html That's the only time I noticed a mistake like that which diff -w missed. Also here is my rename_rev.pl script. It's pretty useful. Pipe patches to it and it filters out the white space changes. regards, dan carpenter
#!/usr/bin/perl # This is a tool to help review variable rename patches.
