First of all, I don't understand why you keep sending these patches for
net. Please add more information about the changes to the commit
messages.

For the formatting I was complaining about - you should fold updates to
the code you're _already_modifying_ into the relevant patches.

You can clean up the rest of the code but definitely not in net. Code
refactoring goes to net-next.

Perhaps a read of the netdev FAQ will elucidate what I'm on about:
