Hi, I wanted to submit my first patch. But I have some confusion about the /scripts/checkpatch.pl errors. After correcting some checkpatch errors, when I run checkpatch.pl, it showed me 0 errors. But when I create patches are git format-patch, it is showing me 1 error. If I fix error in patch, it showed me back again in files. Now, I am confused which error to fix while submitting patches, the file or the patch errors. Please provide your opinion.
