Hmm. I can't tell whats' wrong, but both my own mailbox and the
lore.kernel.org clearly has missing whitespace at end of lines.

You can see it yourself with a simple

b4 am 20210317104547.442203-1-leon@kernel.org

(assuming you have b4 installed, of course:

https://pypi.org/project/b4/

but with a kernel.org address I'm sure you've seen the emails about it
even if you may not be a user).

Yeah, the email looks fine in any other way technically, it passes SPF
and DKIM, and I don't see anything else strange going on either.

I think the same VIM issue that caused some whitespace line changes
for you in the patch might have then bitten you when you sent it out -
I know you must have edited the message, becasuse you have that

"I'm sending this patch to you directly because it is much saner to
apply it in one place instead of multiple patches saga that will [...]"

below the commit message, that you presumable added with "--annotate".

> Are you sure that such change came from me and not from "--whitespace=fix"?

Yup. See above on how you can just use b4 to download a copy yourself..
