If this total turd of a patch was merged by an upstream maintainer, said
maintainer needs to be taken out back and shot.

And quite frankly, we don't care what you've merged into a local tree.

Take it out back and shoot it.

Nick, you were *told* to quit trying to evade banishments by changing
names.  If this is actually from a Suse developer, they are perfectly
able to do their own work and upstream it.  If this is a patch from
2012 and *still* not upstreamed, there's probably good reasons for it.

I don't know *what* you did to your git tree, but this is *not* how
kernel code is formatted. People who submit code that's *THIS* poorly
formatted even after they've been warned before are *not* welcome
in the kernel community.

I'm sorry Nick, but you've worn out pretty much all of whatever little
welcome you had left.
