That will not work. Your patch look really bad with all types of indentation.
You need to use something that doesn't autoindent. Also please do not mix
spaces and tabs - you have that on each line and that's agreed NO-NO.
You either use tabs (8 spaces) or you use all spaces. But not tab & spaces on
the same line.
