Ohh, and I'd be submitting all the patches to you Andrew, not individual maintainers/authors..

That should be OK - you can test that the .o files have the same `size'

Ok, will do.

Just a small sugestion: do a sha (or md5sum, or whatever hash function you prefer) to vmlinux before and after applying the patches.

If all is well, it shouldn't change (since this is just whitespace cleanup), and it is a little more robust than just checking the size.
