Subject: checkpatch: ensure we only apply checks to the lines within hunks
From: Andy Whitcroft <apw@xxxxxxxxxxxx>
We should only apply source checks to lines within hunks. Checks which
are anchored in the context may falsly trigger in the commentory. Ensure
they only match within valid hunk lines.
