The patch titled Subject: checkpatch: add --strict tests for braces, comments and casts has been removed from the -mm tree. Its filename was checkpatch-add-strict-tests-for-braces-comments-and-casts.patch This patch was dropped because it was merged into mainline or a subsystem tree The current -mm tree may be found at http://userweb.kernel.org/~akpm/mmotm/ ------------------------------------------------------ From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: checkpatch: add --strict tests for braces, comments and casts Add some more subjective --strict tests. Add a test for block comments that start with a blank line followed only by a line with just the comment block initiator. Prefer a blank line followed by /* comment... Add a test for unnecessary spaces after a cast. Add a test for symmetric uses of braces in if/else blocks. If one branch needs braces, then all branches should use braces.
