As a follow-up of a previous patch modifying the documentation to allow using the "Closes:" tag, checkpatch.pl is updated accordingly. checkpatch.pl now no longer complain when the "Closes:" tag is used by itself or after the "Reported-by:" tag. Fixes: 76f381bb77a0 ("checkpatch: warn when unknown tags are used for links") Fixes: d7f1d71e5ef6 ("checkpatch: warn when Reported-by: is not followed by Link:") Closes: https://github.com/multipath-tcp/mptcp_net-next/issues/373 Signed-off-by: Matthieu Baerts <matthieu.baerts@xxxxxxxxxxxx> --- v3: - split into 2 patches: the previous one adds a list with all the "link" tags. This one only allows the "Closes" tag. (Joe Perches) - "Closes" is no longer printed between parenthesis.
