I think I found it at:

      http://dev.gentoo.org/~dsd/genpatches/patches-2.6.12-10.htm

looks like it should be in the extras patch I just downloaded:

    4305_dm-bbr.patch
    EVMS 2.5.2
    Bad block relocation support for LiveCD users

What's the LiveCD got to do with it?

So if I install it I'd be want to be sure it works. How do ya test it?

While break-pointing around the ext3 code looking for the cause of
a hang I was thinking that many times they leave in the white space 
as if the brackets were there.
	.					.
	.					.
	.					.
	if (panic) {				if (panic) 
		printk("die\n");			printk("die\n");
	}
	return;                                 return;
}					}

Just leaving in the blank line seems to provide much of the
parse-ability of your current style to me and very likely 
keeps it in the kernel coding style.
