Also, when you send the patches, send them to yourself first and try
applying them. This way you can check whether your sending path doesn't
mangle them for some reason.

And ditto:

ERROR: code indent should use tabs where possible
#91: FILE: arch/x86/kernel/head32.c:35:
+ setup_early_serial_console();$

WARNING: please, no spaces at the start of a line
#91: FILE: arch/x86/kernel/head32.c:35:
+ setup_early_serial_console();$

ERROR: code indent should use tabs where possible
#94: FILE: arch/x86/kernel/head32.c:38:
+ early_printk("Kernel alive\n");$

WARNING: please, no spaces at the start of a line
#94: FILE: arch/x86/kernel/head32.c:38:
+ early_printk("Kernel alive\n");$

total: 2 errors, 3 warnings, 66 lines checked

NOTE: whitespace errors detected, you may wish to use scripts/cleanpatch or
scripts/cleanfile

Your patch has style problems, please review.
