In order to support the get-lore-mbox.py tool described in [1], I ran:

    git format-patch --base=<commit> --cover-letter <revrange>

...  which generated a "base-commit: <commit-hash>" tag at the end of the
cover letter.  However, checkpatch.pl generated an error upon encounting
"base-commit:" in the cover letter:

    "ERROR: Please use git commit description style..."

...  because it found the "commit" keyword, and failed to recognize that
it was part of the "base-commit" phrase, and as such, should not be
subjected to the same commit description style rules.

Update checkpatch.pl to include a special case for "base-commit:" (at the
start of the line, possibly with some leading whitespace) so that that tag
no longer generates a checkpatch error.

About 2% of the last 100K commits have email addresses that include an
RFC2822 compliant comment like:

	Peter Zijlstra (Intel) <peterz@infradead.org>

checkpatch currently does a comparison of the complete name and address to
the submitted author to determine if the author has signed-off and emits a
warning if the exact email names and addresses do not match.

Unfortunately, the author email address can be written without the comment
like:

	Peter Zijlstra <peterz@infradead.org>

Add logic to compare the comment stripped email addresses to avoid this
warning.

Add support for %pfw conversion specifier (with "f" and "P" modifiers) to
support printing full path of the node, including its name ("f") and only
the node's name ("P") in the printk family of functions. The two flags
have equivalent functionality to existing %pOF with the same two modifiers
("f" and "P") on OF based systems. The ability to do the same on ACPI
based systems is added by this patch.

On ACPI based systems the resulting strings look like

	\_SB.PCI0.CIO2.port@1.endpoint@0

where the nodes are separated by a dot (".") and the first three are
ACPI device nodes and the latter two ACPI data nodes.

Make the backtick execution of all `git <foo>` commands set the
LANGUAGE of the process to en_US.utf8 before executing the actual
command using `export LANGUAGE=en_US.utf8; git <foo>`.

Because the command is executed in a child process, the parent

  - add some lists markups;
  - mark literal blocks;
  - adjust title markups.

projects which use checkpatch.pl but do not allow C99 style comments.

This patch adds yet another variable, named C99_COMMENT_TOLERANCE.  If
it is included in the --ignore command line or config file options list,
C99 comments in the patch are reported as errors.

Tested by processing a patch with a C99 style comment, it passes the

This patch creates a deprecated_apis map, which allows such APIs to
be flagged with suggested replacements more compactly and straightforwardly.
It also uses this map to flag the old flavorful RCU APIs as deprecated,
suggesting their vanilla-RCU counterparts as replacements.

[ paulmck: Merged with earlier less-deft approach. ]

This warning was there to avoid the use of 0bxxx values as they are not
supported by gcc prior to v4.3

Since cafa0010 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6"),
it's not an issue anymore and using such values can increase readability
of code.

Joe said:

: Seems sensible as the other compilers also support binary literals from
: relatively old versions.

__ro_after_init is a specific __attribute__ that checkpatch does currently
not understand.

Add it to the known $Attribute types so that code that uses variables
declared with __ro_after_init are not thought to be a modifier type.

This appears as a defect in checkpatch output of code like:

static bool trust_cpu __ro_after_init = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU);
[...]
       if (trust_cpu && arch_init) {

where checkpatch reports:

ERROR: space prohibited after that '&&' (ctx:WxW)
	if (trust_cpu && arch_init) {

Using a static const struct definition as part of a series of
declarations produces a false positive "Missing a blank line after
declarations" for code like:

  WARNING: Missing a blank line after declarations
  #710: FILE: drivers/gpu/drm/tidss/tidss_scale_coefs.c:137:
  +       int inc;
  +       static const struct {

So fix it.

Devicetree bindings should be their own patch as documented in
Documentation/devicetree/bindings/submitting-patches.txt section I.1.
This is because bindings are logically independent from a driver
implementation, they have a different maintainer (even though they often
are applied via the same tree), and it makes for a cleaner history in the
DT only tree created with git-filter-branch.

So add a checkpatch test for it.

Current checkpatch implementation permits notation like

	} else{

in kernel code.  It looks like oversight and inconsistency in checkpatch
rules (e.g.  instruction like 'do' is tested).

Add regex for checking space after 'else' keyword and trigger error if
space is not present.
