Make sure it at least catches stuff like:
{
if (input) {
}
}
{
if (likely(input)) {
}
}
{
if (!input)
return;
...
}
{
if (unlikely(!input))
return;
...
}
And of course each match then has to be validated manually.

There is no line length limitation for email, at least one that would
be relevant here. Patches should be sent verbatim, no line wrapping,
expandtab, etc or they won't apply. I'd recommend git-send-email, but
if you want to make thunderbird work for patches (which is what you
seem to be using) have a look at the "Thunderbird (GUI)" section of
Documentation/email-clients.txt in the kernel tree.
Thanks,
