I didn't see this in the diff from my version to this one.

Also adds incorrect conversion of tabs to spaces in at least 3 locations ...

I had also corrected various typos and the copyright statement, as well as
reworked the commit messages. So at this point, I'd rather see these as changes
on top of what I have cleaned up.

Please compare what you have here with:
https://github.com/dvhart/linux-pdx86/tree/review-dvhart-mellanox-v10

And send me any changes strictly on top of that.

Are you anticipating any additional changes beyond those in this version?
