Dear Graeme Russ,
In message 4DB15DD7.8050404@gmail.com you wrote:
I think it wouldbe even better if we could push our changes back into the "mainline" version of checkpatch, so that the U-Boot specific behaviour can beenabled by a command line option (checkpatch --uboot ?).
Forking is not so preferrable here, I think.
I agree, but if the Linux guys won't accept patches for U-Boot specific semantics, what choice do we have?
Did you ask him, and he refused, or is this just a hypothetical question?
Best regards,
Wolfgang Denk
