Ok, I see that you fixed this by unifying those functions.

You say you don't want to handle this, but AFAICT from the patch you
already did. Or did I miss something?

Linux' /proc/swaps prints spaces after the first column and tabs for
the rest. I think it's better to do the same just in case, but I
don't think it's relevant either way.

No. Thanks for fixing those problems.
