I'm afraid this patch is completely whitespace damaged: the tabs have
all become spaces and the mailer has broken some of the lines.

Since it's a one liner, I can make the fix directly, but if you look at

Documentation/SubmittingPatches

It has some good advice about how to fix your email tool to prevent this
from happening in future.
