We will also be able to really check that compatibles are documented rather than just grepping the bindings for a compatible string. > Signed-off-by: Brian Norris <briannorris@xxxxxxxxxxxx> > --- > Overall, this got a little more unwieldy, but it works. > > v2: > * Include PCI in addition to USB > * Add special warning for leading zeroes and for upper-case > * Move the VID,PID check up higher, so we don't complain about > documentation at all if using the correct format > --- > scripts/checkpatch.pl | 21 +++++++++++++++++++-- > 1 file changed, 19 insertions(+), 2 deletions(-)
