You need to put the explanation in the cover letter.

Without reading the cover-letter, I do not understand
why this change is needed.

You are breaking the indentation style.

Check how the current code is indented.
(tab and spaces).


A space is needed after 'if'
for coding style consistency.

I do not understand the condition:


defined($orig_configs{$config}) && $orig_configs{$config} ne "m"
      && $orig_configs{$config} ne "y"


Is there any case when this condition is met?
