From 9fe287d79b0af983050d24e7916cf3d1f019f553 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Andy Whitcroft Date: Tue, 26 Oct 2010 14:23:15 -0700 Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: ensure kconfig help checks only apply when we are adding help When checking the length of the help we need to be sure we are seeing the whole story before erroring. Firstly we only want to check when adding the help in the first place. Second we need to be sure that we are seeing the end of the entry, nominally when there is no context below or that context shows the start of the next entry.
