All three patches are just confusing patch because they were either taken from a mailing list (the first and last) and have extra stuff at the bottom of the patch, or in the case of mcelog, there is just extra whitespace. The generated code is fine. Thanks for the report. We'll try and avoid this where possible in the future.
