Perhaps (like the -W options for GCC) there

a good suggestion, but if I could optionally indicate
somewhere that "two consecutive blank lines is OK for
Greybus" (one example that comes to mind) I might do so.

checkpatch already has --ignore=<list> and --types=<list>
for the various classes of messages it emits.

see: $ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --list-types --verbose

Dwaipayan Ray (cc'd) is supposedly working on expanding
the verbose descriptions of each type.


That's awesome, I wasn't aware of that.

Any suggestions on a standardized way to say "in this
subtree, please provide these arguments to checkpatch.pl"?

I can probably stick it in a README file or something,
but is there an existing best practice?

Thanks.
