The kernel panic on boot is caused by bugs in the parport part. I
worked around these by disabling PARPORT in the kernel configuration.

However, a weekend of bisecting just sent me back to commit
d85ce830eef6c10d1e9617172dea4681f02b8424, which is a purely cosmetic
commit. What totally confuses me is the sheer size of the diff.

Why do I get a 800000+ line diff for a 14 line commit?

This can't be correct. Hints?

Here is the BISECT_LOG:
