It's using standard 8 char wide tabs.  I'm using vi with `set ts=8
set sw=2', that's all.  The tab setting should work with all
editors in default setting.  The formatting used is consistent with

What's the problem to create a good style patch, even if it consists
of only three or four lines?  Sigh.  I don't like to argument about
that stuff.  It's ok for now.

I hoped to get an assignment from you so that we never have to ask
for that later.  Is it a problem for you to assign copyright?
