One that is corrected by the "--cc parri.andrea@gmail.com" I give to
"git send-email", so people will not be able to slide submissions past
you using this mechanism. But I had to rebase anyway, so I added
your "Cc:". So now you are doubly covered! ;-)

Ah, that is a bit non-standard, isn't it? Fixed!

Last I knew, Linus was actually OK with the style above, or at least
the C-language equivalent. But might as well make these consistent with
the rest of them.

Hmmm... Three-space indentation vs. the two-space indentation that was
already in the file, both of which are different than the single-tab
indentation in linux-kernel.cat as well as elsewhere in the kernel.

Left to myself, I would convert this to single-tab indentation.

What to people think?

It now looks like this:

in map pair-to-relation (((UL | IW) * {r}) & loc & ext)

Or it would, except that this conflicts with one of Alan's later patches.
I don't trust myself to resolve this conflict at the moment, but would
be happy to try it on a day when I haven't been beating my head on
Linux-kernel RCU continuously (it actually seems to be working now,
which must mean some mistake somewhere...). If there is agreement that
this spacing change is the way we should go, of course.

Thoughts?

Thanx, Paul
