I've got a false positive when spaces are present at the beginning of a
line.

So I add this check, obviously excluding to check the lines in the middle of
comments.

For instance this code passes the checkpatch test:

+struct davinci_mcbsp_data {
+       unsigned int    fmt;
+    int             clk_div;
+};
+
+static struct davinci_mcbsp_data mcbsp_data;

Where, before the string "int             clk_div", I have 4 spaces (\040
ascii character).

With v2.6.34 scripts/checkpatch.pl script I get:

scripts/checkpatch.pl 0001-ASoC-DaVinci-Added-support-for-stereo-I2S.patch
total: 0 errors, 0 warnings, 201 lines checked
0001-ASoC-DaVinci-Added-support-for-stereo-I2S.patch has no obvious style

That is not correct.  Instead with the proposed patch I get:

savedefconfig will save a minimal config to a file
named "defconfig".

The config symbols are saved in the same order as
they appear in the menu structure so it should
be possible to map them to the relevant menus
if desired.

The implementation was tested against several minimal
configs for arm which was created using brute-force.

There was one regression related to default numbers
which had their valid range further limited by another symbol.

Sample:

config FOO
	int "foo"
	default 4

config BAR
	int "bar"
	range 0 FOO

If FOO is set to 3 then BAR cannot take a value higher than 3.
But the current implementation will set BAR equal to 4.

This is seldomly used and the final configuration is OK,
and the fix was non-trivial.
So it was documented in the code and left as is.

There seems to be a kconfig bug due to MODULES not always being
evaluated if no .config is found. Take the following Kconfig as an
example:

config MODULES
	def_bool y

config FOO
	def_tristate m

With no .config, the following configuration is generated:

CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_FOO=y

With an empty .config, the following:

CONFIG_MODULES=y
CONFIG_FOO=m

Tristate choice statements can also exhibit the problem, due to having an
implicit rev_dep (select) containing "m".

The problem is that MODULES is never evaluted in conf_read_simple() unless
there's a .config. The following patch fixes this.

I found this issue in a locally patched 2.6.32.x, current kernels have
moved the offending code to an __init function which is skipped by
recordmcount.pl, so the bug is not currently being exercised.
However, I think the patch is still a good idea, to avoid future
problems if _mcount were to ever have its address taken in normal
code.

This is what I originally saw:

    Although arch/mips/kernel/ftrace.c is built without -pg, and thus
    contains no calls to _mcount, it does use the address of _mcount
    in ftrace_make_nop().  This was causing relocations to be emitted
    for _mcount which recordmcount.pl erronously took to be _mcount
    call sites.  The result was that the text of ftrace_make_nop()
    would be patched with garbage leading to a system crash.

In non-module code, all _mcount call sites will have R_MIPS_26
relocations, so we restrict $mcount_regex to only match on these.

The 'source' builtin is a bash alias to the '.' (dot) builtin. While the
former is supported only by bash, the latter is specified in POSIX and
works fine with all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of.

The '$_' special parameter is specific to bash. It is partially
supported in dash too but it always evaluates to the current script path
(which causes the script to enter a loop recursively re-executing
itself). This is why I have replaced the two occurences of '$_' with the
explicit parameter.

The 'local' builtin is another example of bash-specific code. Although
it is supported by all POSIX-compliant shells I am aware of, it is not
part of POSIX specification and thus the code should not rely on it
assigning a specific value to the local variable. Moreover, the 'posh'
shell has a limited version of 'local' builtin not supporting direct
variable assignments. Thus, I have broken one of the 'local'
declarations down into a (non-POSIX) 'local' declaration and a plain
(POSIX-compliant) variable assignment.

even if they have unmet direct dependencies (i.e. "depends on" expands

way.

The patch introduces additional tracking of the "depends on" statements

easily expressed using waitid().  Although it's true that wait4()

Since there is already a deprecated wait4 in the ABI, this change

It just hit me.
It's the offset calculation in reloc_location() which overflows:
        return (void *)elf->hdr + sechdrs[section].sh_offset +
               (r->r_offset - sechdrs[section].sh_addr);

E.g. for the first rodata r entry:
r->r_offset < sechdrs[section].sh_addr
and the expression in the parenthesis produces 0xFFFFFFE0 or something

A 'coccicheck' target is added. It can be called with four different
modes. Each one generates a different kind of output, i.e. context,
patch, org, report, according to the corresponding mode to be
activated.

The new target calls the 'coccicheck' front-end in the 'scripts'
directory with the MODE argument. Every SmPL file in the
subdirectories of 'scripts/coccinelle' is then given to the front-end
and applied to the entire source tree.

The four modes behave as follows:

'report' generates a list in the following format:
  file:line:column-column: message

'patch' proposes a fix, when possible.

'context' highlights lines of interest and their context in a
diff-like style. Lines of interest are indicated with '-'.

'org' generates a report in the Org mode format of Emacs.
