Changes from v3:
* Added "and break a long line" to the commit message
Changes from v2:
* Split cosmetic (this patch) from functional changes (next patch)

Never resubmit patches by themselves, always resubmit the entire series.

I was just wondering what happens in that case, thank you for the 
explanation, I had no idea.

Because when one patch has problems, I toss the entire series from patchwork,

Is "v3b" good or shall I just use v4 instead?
Do I also need to change the version number (and add "Changes from 
previous version" lines) to the subsequent patches, even though nothing 
has actually changed)? Should have I used a cover letter to begin with?

That I don't understand. I thought it would be the other way around, 
that's why I resubmitted only the one which changed.
If I resubmit the entire series, how can you tell patches 2 and 3 are 
identical to the previous version I posted?

Last question: Is chain reply OK?

Thanks for your patience,
Gerlando

I've tossed this patch too, resubmit this properly, thanks.
