Brice, I've made my objection known on the LKML.  Joe *agrees* that
having them on the beginning of the line is preferred.  Thousands of
contributors throughout the tree agree.

This is entirely a Miller thing.

My main objection to these sweeping patches is that it makes it much
more difficult to maintain and apply patches across different versions of
the tree.  We have already seen conflicts with other git maintained trees.

These patches should not be accepted to the main Linus tree.
