Yes; Magit's maintainer provided his own version on my SO question:

(defun my-magit-delete-trailing-whitespace-from-file ()
  "Remove whitespace from the current file."
  (interactive)
  (save-excursion
    (magit-diff-visit-file-worktree (magit-file-at-point))
    (delete-trailing-whitespace)
    (save-buffer)
    (kill-buffer))
  (magit-refresh))

If a reader is seeing this in the far future, I'd check the SO post for any possible updates for new Magit versions.
