Assuming that your average checkpatch.pl wanker doesn't qualify, you mean?

Which is not a security defect by any stretch of imagination.  Incidentally,
any compiler is going to be capable of detecting and removing that...

It's -><- this close to spamming links to one's project/community/social
shmedia webshite/whatnot.  Complete with "if you want to see how good it is,
sign up for free account", even...

You might want to tone that down.  If it's really a bot posting (and not
a human-curated output of a script[1]), it's very close to the "banned
as a spambot" territory.

[1] in which case there would be arseloads of prior art, going back to at
least 2004 or so - and that's the ones I know about.
