Re: [PATCHv3 3/4] ldbl-128: Mechanical L(x) cleanup.
I don't see the point of these cleanups in patches 3 or 4. Adding spaces
inside L() to line up decimal points in tables of figures that are
inherently not human-readable doesn't seem like an improvement; the
important thing to be readable is the comments explaining semantics of the
tables of figures. Adding L() mechanically has not made the formatting
any worse.
That said: some of the changes are to tables that clearly aren't formatted
according to the GNU Coding Standards (for example, have no indentation at
all). In such cases, fixing to follow the GNU Coding Standards (which
typically means two-column indentation - again, no spaces inside L(), and
nothing to line up decimal points of positive and negative values) is
perfectly OK, it just has nothing to do with float128 support.
