If readability is of concern, you can fixup the issues you see in a
pre-patch - I mean, you're touching the code so might as well fix them
while at it.

What I really don't want to have is patches which simply fix random
checkpatch issues and other whitespace crap because that becomes an
insane mess with new people not really concentrating on fixing actual
bugs but doing whitespace wankery only.

And having such patches always gets in the way when one does git
archeology to figure out why something was done the way it is.

But it's fine to fix those if you're going to touch the code anyway.

HTH.
