The patch titled Subject: checkpatch: warn on missing spaces in broken up quoted has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was checkpatch-warn-on-missing-spaces-in-broken-up-quoted.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree ------------------------------------------------------ From: Dan Carpenter <dan.carpenter@xxxxxxxxxx> Subject: checkpatch: warn on missing spaces in broken up quoted Checkpatch already complains when people break up quoted strings but it's still pretty common. One mistake that people often make is they leave out the space character between the two strings. This check adds around 450 new warnings and has a low rate of false positives.
