Rewriting the patch almost never happens, the patch is usually left to
its fate until the assignment is completed. We generally accept
without assignment up to 15 lines, cumulative across all patches
submitted by the same person, with some leeway for trivial changes
such as reindentation (but not much more than that)

I guess we can live without a testcase.
