your checkpatch patch itself produces 22 warnings ...
i ran it over kernel/sched.c and there are many bogus warnings that i
reported to you earlier:
WARNING: multiple assignments should be avoided
#2319:
+ max_load = this_load = total_load = total_pwr = 0;
and new bogus ones:
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxV)
#5287:
+ mode_t mode, proc_handler *proc_handler)
ERROR: need consistent spacing around '*' (ctx:WxV)
#5328:
+static ctl_table *sd_alloc_ctl_cpu_table(int cpu)
ERROR: need space before that '*' (ctx:VxV)
#209:
+# define INIT_TASK_GRP_LOAD 2*NICE_0_LOAD
why did you ignore my feedback? Ever since v8 the quality of
checkpatch.pl has been getting worse and worse as there are way too many
false positives. I'm still stuck on v8 for my own use, v9 and v10 is
unusable.
