I've split the patch in two, first one with the whitespace cleanups...

...second one with this change. It's not a big change, but it _is_ a
code change, compared to all the rest which is only formatting changes.
You never know what impact a code change can have, so I prefer to have
it in a separate patch. It's cleaner that way anyway.

You can see the exact patches I took in my tree here:
