Hi,

I just read this article about the ideal LKML patch:

  http://kerneltrap.org/node/view/3737?PHPSESSID=fdd31ac2e7467173a877e84f3c83924f#comment

Where I found this paragraph:

- Ensure that your patch does not add new trailing whitespace. The below
  script will fix up your patch by stripping off such whitespace.

  #!/bin/sh

  strip1()
  {
      TMP=$(mktemp /tmp/XXXXXX)
      cp $1 $TMP
      sed -e '/^+/s/[         ]*$//' < $TMP > $1
      rm $TMP
  }

  for i in $*
    do
    strip1 $i
  done


I think it be a great idea if m-x delete-trailing-whitespace in
diff-mode would only remove trailing white-space in lines marked with ^+

What do you think?
