Hello all,

During xen hacking I often encounter white spaces at EOLs. It is quite annoying to see red marker in, say, xen/arch/arm/domctl.c:25

I used sed to create patch that removes all such whitespaces. Command is simple:

# find xen -name "*.[ch]" | xargs sed -i "s/[[:space:]]*$//g"

Problem is that patch is quite big:

 285 files changed, 1463 insertions(+), 1463 deletions(-)

So what is the best way to publish this fix? I can just send it to ML as one patch. There is no functional changes, so should I add maintainers?
