I've also run into the same issues on occasion. However, this isn't
about whether we dislike trailing spaces or not; it's about NFC churn
for out of tree users who have to try to keep their local patches
clean against upstream. This kind of churn makes for merge conflicts
and this is a the reason the community has traditionally rejected
these large-scale commits in the past. If we want to change that
policy, it should come after community discussion and agreement.
