Hi all,
I am trying to run checkpatch.pl on latest kernel version 5.1.0 source tree from orig head 80f232121b69cc69a31ccb2b38c1665d770b0710
When I run checkpatch.pl, for every file I get the follwong or similar error. Could you please help if this is my environment issue or actually error in code which I need to fix ?
I executed the following in command prompt.
perl scripts/checkpatch.pl -f drivers/staging/rtl8712/* |less
The error I observe
drivers/staging/rtl8712/rtl871x_rf.h
------------------------------------

Please suggest me.
