Looks fine to me.

There are few lines in the patchset where the indentation is done
by spaces instead of tabs. The above 3 lines are just one example.

I'll fix this when pushing. But please, be more careful next time ;-)
I suggest to use some more clever editor that helps with code
formatting.

Also I suggest to run ./scripts/checkpatch.pl on the patches
before sending.


Also the three patches were not send in a single thread so that
it was harder to find all the pieces. I personally use:

    git format-patch --cover-letter origin/master -o some-dir
    ./scripts/checkpatch.pl some-dir/*
    $> edit some-dir/0000-*.patch
    git send-email --smtp-server=... --to= --cc= ... some-dir/*
