Before you send a patch, do:

git log -p -1 | ./scripts/get_maintainer.pl

that'll give you who to Cc. Then you'll see that there's no

edac@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

mailing list but

linux-edac@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

I've fixed up that now.

There's no

kernel@xxxxxxxxxxxxxxx

either.

Please no, this is adding useless churn.

Such stylistic changes - if they would make sense at all - should be
done as part of other fixes - not as a standalone patch.

Thx.
