    I think I'll duck this lot for now in view of the (relatively small) amount
    of followup.

    I did do an experimental will-it-apply and got a tremendous number of
    rejects against the x86 git tree, almost all of which went away when `patch
    -l' was used. Seems that someone has gone on a whitespace rampage through
    arch/x86/ia32/ptrace32.c and arch/x86/ia32/ptrace64.c.

    That's kinda/sorta OK, but `patch -l' is a bit more inclined to misplace
    hunks and it's all a bit risky.
