Thanks, but sorry we cannot use this patch as-is (even if it were
signed-off and came with a proper log message).

The patch touches phrases somebody may find questionable at many
different levels.

 - "lowercase ok" and "fall thru" are quite acceptable colloquial
   forms; if the person who DID the real work chose to write these
   in such a way, I do not see a reason for us to update it to a
   different preference.

 - There are outright typoes that noboddy would disagree with,
   e.g. s/sinse/since/.
