IMHO formatting reasons are not enough to submit a patch, unless the
formatting is really whack. If it's off by one space, it probably
doesn't matter. Enough lines get changed anyway without the "noise" of
re-formatting something. If you are touching that code anyway or
something very near it, then you might go ahead and change the
formatting also.
