This check looks for common words that probably indicate a patch
is a fix. For now the regex is:
(?:(?:BUG: K.|UB)SAN: |Call Trace:|stable\@|syzkaller)/)
Why are stable patches encouraged to have a fixes tag? Some people mark
their stable patches as "# 5.10" etc. This is useful but a Fixes tag is
still a good idea. For example, the Fixes tag helps in review. It
helps people to not cherry-pick buggy patches without also
cherry-picking the fix.
Also if a bug affects the 5.7 kernel some people will round it up to
5.10+ because 5.7 is not supported on kernel.org. It's possible the Bad
Binder bug was caused by this sort of gap where companies outside of
kernel.org are supporting different kernels from kernel.org.
Should it be counted as a Fix when a patch just silences harmless
WARN_ON() stack trace. Yes. Definitely.
Is silencing compiler warnings a fix? It seems unfair to the original
authors, but we use -Werror now, and warnings break the build so let's
just add Fixes tags. I tell people that silencing static checker
warnings is not a fix but the rules on this vary by subsystem.
Is fixing a minor LTP issue (Linux Test Project) a fix? Probably? It's
hard to know what to do if the LTP test has technically always been
broken.
One clear false positive from this check is when someone updated their
debug output and included before and after Call Traces. Or when crashes
are introduced deliberately for testing. In those cases, you should
just ignore checkpatch.

If function-like macros do not utilize a parameter, it might result in a
build warning. In our coding style guidelines, we advocate for utilizing
static inline functions to replace such macros. This patch verifies
compliance with the new rule.
For a macro such as the one below,
#define test(a) do { } while (0)
The test result is as follows.
WARNING: Argument 'a' is not used in function-like macro

Here is the big set of char/misc and other driver subsystem changes for
6.8-rc1. Lots of stuff in here, but first off, you will get a merge
conflict in drivers/android/binder_alloc.c when merging this tree due to
changing coming in through the -mm tree.
The resolution of the merge issue can be found here:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/20231207134213.25631ae9@canb.auug.org.au
or in a simpler patch form in that thread:
https://lore.kernel.org/r/ZXHzooF07LfQQYiE@google.com
If there are issues with the merge of this file, please let me know.
Other than lots of binder driver changes (as you can see by the merge
conflicts) included in here are:
- lots of iio driver updates and additions
- spmi driver updates
- eeprom driver updates
- firmware driver updates
- ocxl driver updates
- mhi driver updates
- w1 driver updates
- nvmem driver updates
- coresight driver updates

Core & protocols
----------------
- Analyze and reorganize core networking structs (socks, netdev,
netns, mibs) to optimize cacheline consumption and set up
build time warnings to safeguard against future header changes.
This improves TCP performances with many concurrent connections
up to 40%.
- Add page-pool netlink-based introspection, exposing the
memory usage and recycling stats. This helps indentify
bad PP users and possible leaks.
- Refine TCP/DCCP source port selection to no longer favor even
source port at connect() time when IP_LOCAL_PORT_RANGE is set.
This lowers the time taken by connect() for hosts having
many active connections to the same destination.
- Refactor the TCP bind conflict code, shrinking related socket
structs.
- Refactor TCP SYN-Cookie handling, as a preparation step to
allow arbitrary SYN-Cookie processing via eBPF.
- Tune optmem_max for 0-copy usage, increasing the default value
to 128KB and namespecifying it.
- Allow coalescing for cloned skbs coming from page pools, improving
RX performances with some common configurations.
- Reduce extension header parsing overhead at GRO time.
- Add bridge MDB bulk deletion support, allowing user-space to
request the deletion of matching entries.
- Reorder nftables struct members, to keep data accessed by the
datapath first.
- Introduce TC block ports tracking and use. This allows supporting
multicast-like behavior at the TC layer.
- Remove UAPI support for retired TC qdiscs (dsmark, CBQ and ATM) and
classifiers (RSVP and tcindex).
- More data-race annotations.
- Extend the diag interface to dump TCP bound-only sockets.
- Conditional notification of events for TC qdisc class and actions.
- Support for WPAN dynamic associations with nearby devices, to form
a sub-network using a specific PAN ID.
- Implement SMCv2.1 virtual ISM device support.
- Add support for Batman-avd mulicast packet type.
BPF
---
- Tons of verifier improvements:
- BPF register bounds logic and range support along with a large
test suite
- log improvements
- complete precision tracking support for register spills
- track aligned STACK_ZERO cases as imprecise spilled registers. It
improves the verifier "instructions processed" metric from single
digit to 50-60% for some programs
- support for user's global BPF subprogram arguments with few
commonly requested annotations for a better developer experience
- support tracking of BPF_JNE which helps cases when the compiler
transforms (unsigned) "a > 0" into "if a == 0 goto xxx" and the
like
- several fixes
- Add initial TX metadata implementation for AF_XDP with support in
mlx5 and stmmac drivers. Two types of offloads are supported right
now, that is, TX timestamp and TX checksum offload.
- Fix kCFI bugs in BPF all forms of indirect calls from BPF into
kernel and from kernel into BPF work with CFI enabled. This allows
BPF to work with CONFIG_FINEIBT=y.
- Change BPF verifier logic to validate global subprograms lazily
instead of unconditionally before the main program, so they can be
guarded using BPF CO-RE techniques.
- Support uid/gid options when mounting bpffs.
- Add a new kfunc which acquires the associated cgroup of a task
within a specific cgroup v1 hierarchy where the latter is identified
by its id.
- Extend verifier to allow bpf_refcount_acquire() of a map value field
obtained via direct load which is a use-case needed in sched_ext.
- Add BPF link_info support for uprobe multi link along with bpftool
integration for the latter.
- Support for VLAN tag in XDP hints.
- Remove deprecated bpfilter kernel leftovers given the project
is developed in user-space (https://github.com/facebook/bpfilter).
Misc
----
- Support for parellel TC self-tests execution.
- Increase MPTCP self-tests coverage.
- Updated the bridge documentation, including several so-far
undocumented features.
- Convert all the net self-tests to run in unique netns, to
avoid random failures due to conflict and allow concurrent
runs.
- Add TCP-AO self-tests.
- Add kunit tests for both cfg80211 and mac80211.
- Autogenerate Netlink families documentation from YAML spec.
- Add yml-gen support for fixed headers and recursive nests, the
tool can now generate user-space code for all genetlink families
for which we have specs.
- A bunch of additional module descriptions fixes.
- Catch incorrect freeing of pages belonging to a page pool.
Driver API
----------
- Rust abstractions for network PHY drivers; do not cover yet the
full C API, but already allow implementing functional PHY drivers
in rust.
- Introduce queue and NAPI support in the netdev Netlink interface,
allowing complete access to the device <> NAPIs <> queues
relationship.
- Introduce notifications filtering for devlink to allow control
application scale to thousands of instances.
- Improve PHY validation, requesting rate matching information for
each ethtool link mode supported by both the PHY and host.
- Add support for ethtool symmetric-xor RSS hash.
- ACPI based Wifi band RFI (WBRF) mitigation feature for the AMD
platform.
- Expose pin fractional frequency offset value over new DPLL generic
netlink attribute.
- Convert older drivers to platform remove callback returning void.
- Add support for PHY package MMD read/write.

Checkpatch presumes attributes marked with __aligned(alignment) are part
of a function declaration and throws a warning stating that those
compiler attributes should have an identifier name which is not correct.
Add __aligned compiler attributes to the list of attribute notes
so they don't cause warnings anymore.

Add some warnings for using ethtool_sprintf() where a simple
ethtool_puts() would suffice.
The two cases are:
1) Use ethtool_sprintf() with just two arguments:
| ethtool_sprintf(&data, driver[i].name);
or
2) Use ethtool_sprintf() with a standalone "%s" fmt string:
| ethtool_sprintf(&data, "%s", driver[i].name);
The former may cause -Wformat-security warnings while the latter is just
not preferred. Both are safely in the category of warnings, not errors.

Because of this build error, there is no longer any need for a special

"externs should be avoided in .c files" needs an exception for linker
symbols, like those that mark the start, stop of many kernel sections.
Since checkpatch already checks REALNAME to avoid looking at fragments
changing vmlinux.lds.h, add a new else-if block to look at them
instead. As a simple heuristic, treat all words (in the patch-line)
as possible symbols, to screen later warnings.
For my test case, the possible-symbols included BOUNDED_BY (a macro),
which is extra, but not troublesome - these are just to screen
WARNINGS that might be issued on later fragments (changing .c files)
Where the WARN is issued, precede it with an else-if block to catch
one common extern-in-c use case: "extern struct foo bar[]". Here we
can at least issue a softer warning, after checking for a match with a
maybe-linker-symbol parsed earlier from the patch.
Though heuristic, it worked for my test-case, allowing both start__,
stop__ $symbol's (wo the prefixes specifically named). I've coded it
narrowly, it can be expanded later to cover any other expressions.
It does require that the externs in .c's have the additions to
vmlinux.lds.h in the same patch. And requires vmlinux.lds.h before .c
fragments.

"Link:" and "Closes:" tags have to be used with public URLs.
It is difficult to make sure the link is public but at least we can verify
the tag is followed by 'http(s)://'.
With that, we avoid such a tag that is not allowed [1]:
Closes: <number>
Now that we check the "link" tags are followed by a URL, we can relax the
check linked to "Reported-by being followed by a link tag" to only verify
if a "link" tag is present after the "Reported-by" one.

Single-argument kvfree_rcu() usage is being deprecated [1] [2]. However,
till all users are converted, we would like to introduce checkpatch
errors for new patches submitted.
This patch adds support for the same. Tested with a trial patch.
For now, we are only considering usages that don't have compound
nesting, for example ignore: kvfree_rcu( (rcu_head_obj), rcu_head_name).
This is sufficient as such usages are unlikely.
Once all users are converted and we remove the old API, we can also revert this
checkpatch patch then.

Instead of using an unnecessarily complicated approach to print a line
that is warned about, use `$herecurr` instead, just like everywhere else
in checkpatch.
While at it, remove a superfluous space in one of the changed lines, too.
In a unmodified line also remove a superfluous check for a space before a
signed-off-by tag, to me consistent with the check at the start of the
section.
All three problems were found by Joe Perches during review of new code
inspired by the code modified here.

Encourage patch authors to link to reports by issuing a warning, if a
Reported-by: is not accompanied by a link to the report. Those links are
often extremely useful for any code archaeologist that wants to know more
about the backstory of a change than the commit message provides. That
includes maintainers higher up in the patch-flow hierarchy, which is why
Linus asks developers to add such links [1, 2, 3]. To quote [1]:

Another reason why these links are wanted: the ongoing regression tracking
efforts can only scale with them, as they allow the regression tracking

Patch series "checkpatch.pl: warn about discouraged tags and missing Link:
tags", v4.
The first two changes make checkpatch.pl check for a few mistakes wrt to
links to bug reports Linus recently complained about a few times.
Avoiding those is also important for my regression tracking efforts a lot,
as the automated tracking performed by regzbot relies on the proper usage
of the Link: tag.
The third patch fixes a few small oddities noticed in existing code during
review of the two changes.
This patch (of 3):
Issue a warning when encountering URLs behind unknown tags, as Linus
recently stated ```please stop making up random tags that make no sense.
Just use "Link:"```[1]. That statement was triggered by an use of
'BugLink', but that's not the only tag people invented:
$ git log -100000 --no-merges --format=email -P \
--grep='^\w+:[ ]*http' | grep -Poh '^\w+:[ ]*http' | \
sort | uniq -c | sort -rn | head -n 20

Some of these non-standard tags make it harder for external tools that
rely on use of proper tags. One of those tools is the regression tracking
bot 'regzbot', which looks out for "Link:" tags pointing to reports of
tracked regressions.
The initial idea was to use a disallow list to raise an error when
encountering known unwanted tags like BugLink:; during review it was
requested to use a list of allowed tags instead[2].

It was suggested by Fabio that kunmap() be marked deprecated in
checkpatch.[1] This did not seem necessary until an invalid conversion of
kmap_local_page() appeared in mainline.[2][3] The introduction of this bug
would have been flagged with kunmap() being marked deprecated.
Add kunmap() and kunmap_atomic() to checkpatch to help prevent further
confusion.

The lkml.org, marc.info, spinics.net, etc archives are not quite as useful

may disappear in the future. The lore archives are more consistent and

- Kernel internals (kallsyms expansion for Rust symbols, %pA format)

- Rust crates and bindings for initial minimum viable build
- Rust kernel documentation and samples
Rust support has been in linux-next for a year and a half now, and the
short log doesn't do justice to the number of people who have contributed
both to the Linux kernel side but also to the upstream Rust side to

checkpatch does not point out that VM_BUG_ON() and friends should be
avoided, however, Linus notes:
VM_BUG_ON() has the exact same semantics as BUG_ON. It is literally
no different, the only difference is "we can make the code smaller
because these are less important". [1]
So let's warn on VM_BUG_ON() and other BUG variants as well. While at it,
make it clearer that the kernel really shouldn't be crashed.
As there are some subsystem BUG macros that actually don't end up crashing
the kernel -- for example, KVM_BUG_ON() -- exclude these manually.

move it there. Adjust a couple of internal document references to make

Include Rust in the "source code files" category, so that
the language-independent tests are checked for Rust too,
and teach `checkpatch` about the comment style for Rust files.
This enables the malformed SPDX check, the misplaced SPDX license
tag check, the long line checks, the lines without a newline check
and the embedded filename check.

When using a "FILE *" type, checkpatch considers this an error:

Fix this by explicitly defining "FILE" as a common type. This is useful for

kmap() and kmap_atomic() are being deprecated in favor of
kmap_local_page().
There are two main problems with kmap(): (1) It comes with an overhead as
mapping space is restricted and protected by a global lock for
synchronization and (2) it also requires global TLB invalidation when the
kmap's pool wraps and it might block when the mapping space is fully
utilized until a slot becomes available.
kmap_local_page() is safe from any context and is therefore redundant with
kmap_atomic() with the exception of any pagefault or preemption disable
requirements. However, using kmap_atomic() for these side effects makes
the code less clear. So any requirement for pagefault or preemption
disable should be made explicitly.
With kmap_local_page() the mappings are per thread, CPU local, can take
page faults, and can be called from any context (including interrupts).
It is faster than kmap() in kernels with HIGHMEM enabled. Furthermore,
the tasks can be preempted and, when they are scheduled to run again, the
kernel virtual addresses are restored.

The code fragment below
int foo(int *array, int index)
{
return array[index & 0xFF];
}
triggers an incorrect camelcase detection by checking a substring of the
hex constant:
CHECK: Avoid CamelCase: <xFF>
#3: FILE: test.c:3:
+ return array[index & 0xFF];
This is caused by passing the whole string "array[index & 0xFF]" to the
inner loop that iterates over a "$Ident" match. The numeric constant is
not a $Ident as it doesn't start with [A-Za-z_] and should be excluded
from the match.
Similar issue can be detected with other constants like "1uL", "0xffffU".
Force the match to start at word boundary so the $Ident will be properly
checked starting from its first char and the constants will be
filtered-out.

Commit 0ee3e7b889 ("checkpatch: get default codespell dictionary path
from package location") introduced the ability to search for the
codespell dictionary rather than hardcoding its path.
codespell requires Python 3.6 or above, but on some systems, the python
executable is a Python 2.7 interpreter. In this case, searching for the
dictionary fails, subsequently making codespell fail:
No codespell typos will be found - file '/usr/share/codespell/dictionary.txt': No such file or directory
So, use python3 to remove ambiguity.
In addition, when searching for dictionary.txt, do not check if the
codespell executable exists since,
- checkpatch.pl only uses dictionary.txt, not the codespell
executable.
- codespell can be installed via a Python package manager, in which
case the codespell executable may not be present in a typical $PATH,
but a dictionary does exist.

One exceptions to the COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE rule is a file path followed
by ':'. That is typically some sort diagnostic message from a compiler
or a build tool, in which case we don't want to wrap the lines but keep
the message unmodified.
The regular expression used to match this pattern currently doesn't
accept absolute paths or + characters. This can result in false
positives as in the following (out-of-tree) example:
...

...

GCC and Clang can use the "alloc_size" attribute to better inform the
results of __builtin_object_size() (for compile-time constant values).
Clang can additionally use alloc_size to inform the results of
__builtin_dynamic_object_size() (for run-time values).
Because GCC sees the frequent use of struct_size() as an allocator size
argument, and notices it can return SIZE_MAX (the overflow indication),
it complains about these call sites overflowing (since SIZE_MAX is
greater than the default -Walloc-size-larger-than=PTRDIFF_MAX). This
isn't helpful since we already know a SIZE_MAX will be caught at
run-time (this was an intentional design). To deal with this, we must
disable this check as it is both a false positive and redundant. (Clang
does not have this warning option.)
Unfortunately, just checking the -Wno-alloc-size-larger-than is not
sufficient to make the __alloc_size attribute behave correctly under
older GCC versions. The attribute itself must be disabled in those
situations too, as there appears to be no way to reliably silence the
SIZE_MAX constant expression cases for GCC versions less than 9.1:
In file included from ./include/linux/resource_ext.h:11,

^~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Specifically:
'-Wno-alloc-size-larger-than' is not correctly handled by GCC < 9.1
https://godbolt.org/z/hqsfG7q84 (doesn't disable)
https://godbolt.org/z/P9jdrPTYh (doesn't admit to not knowing about option)
https://godbolt.org/z/465TPMWKb (only warns when other warnings appear)
'-Walloc-size-larger-than=18446744073709551615' is not handled by GCC < 8.2
https://godbolt.org/z/73hh1EPxz (ignores numeric value)
Since anything marked with __alloc_size would also qualify for marking
with __malloc, just include __malloc along with it to avoid redundant
markings. (Suggested by Linus Torvalds.)
Finally, make sure checkpatch.pl doesn't get confused about finding the
__alloc_size attribute on functions. (Thanks to Joe Perches.)

Instead of checkpatch requiring the patch author to exactly match the
signed-off-by tag, commit 48ca2d8ac8 ("checkpatch: add new warnings to
author signoff checks.") safely relaxed this requirement.
Although the local-part of an email address (local-part@domain), may be
case sensitive, exploiting the case sensitivity of mailbox local-parts
impedes interoperability and is discouraged. Mailbox domains follow
normal DNS rules and are hence not case sensitive. (Refer to
https://datatracker.ietf.org/doc/html/rfc5321#section-2.4.)
Further relax the patch author and signed-off-by tag comparison by making
the email address check case insensitive.

checkpatch complains about positive return values of poll functions.
Example:
WARNING: return of an errno should typically be negative (ie: return -EPOLLIN)
+ return EPOLLIN;
Poll functions return positive values. The defines for the return values
of poll functions all start with EPOLL, resulting in a number of false
positives. An often used workaround is to assign poll function return
values to variables and returning that variable, but that is a less than
perfect solution.
There is no error definition which starts with EPOLL, so it is safe to
omit the warning for return values starting with EPOLL.

Alderbran support (new GPU), freesync HDMI support along with a lot
other fixes.

Add a new verbose mode to checkpatch.pl to emit additional verbose
test descriptions. The verbose mode is optional and can be enabled
by the flag -v or --verbose.
The test descriptions are parsed from the checkpatch documentation
file at `Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst`. The test
descriptions in the docs are kept in a fixed format grouped by
usage. Some examples of this format are:
**LINE_SPACING**
Vertical space is wasted given the limited number of lines an
editor window can display when multiple blank lines are used.
**MISSING_SIGN_OFF**
The patch is missing a Signed-off-by line. A signed-off-by
line should be added according to Developer's certificate of
Origin.
To avoid lengthy output, the verbose description is printed only
for the first instance of a particular message type.
The --verbose option cannot be used along with the --terse option.
Verbose mode can be used with the --list-types option.
The --list-types output also supports color coding now.

objtool requires that all code must be contained in an ELF symbol. Symbol
names that have a '.L' prefix do not emit symbol table entries, as they
have special meaning for the assembler.
'.L' prefixed symbols can be used within a code region, but should be
avoided for denoting a range of code via 'SYM_*_START/END' annotations.
Add a new check to emit a warning on finding the usage of '.L' symbols for
'.S' files, if it denotes range of code via SYM_*_START/END annotation
pair.

Avoid multiple false positives by ignoring attributes.
Various attributes like volatile and ____cacheline_aligned_in_smp cause
checkpatch to emit invalid "Missing a blank line after declarations"
messages.
Use copies of $sline and $prevline, remove $Attribute and $Sparse, and use
the existing tests to avoid these false positives.
Miscellanea:
o Add volatile to $Attribute
This also reduces checkpatch runtime a bit by moving the indentation
comparison test to the start of the block to avoid multiple unnecessary
regex tests.

Summary of modules changes for the 5.12 merge window:
- Retire EXPORT_UNUSED_SYMBOL() and EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL_FUTURE(). These export
types were introduced between 2006 - 2008. All the of the unused symbols have
been long removed and gpl future symbols were converted to gpl quite a long
time ago, and I don't believe these export types have been used ever since.
So, I think it should be safe to retire those export types now. (Christoph Hellwig)
- Refactor and clean up some aged code cruft in the module loader (Christoph Hellwig)
- Build {,module_}kallsyms_on_each_symbol only when livepatching is enabled, as
it is the only caller (Christoph Hellwig)
- Unexport find_module() and module_mutex and fix the last module
callers to not rely on these anymore. Make module_mutex internal to
the module loader. (Christoph Hellwig)
- Harden ELF checks on module load and validate ELF structures before checking
the module signature (Frank van der Linden)
- Fix undefined symbol warning for clang (Fangrui Song)
- Fix smatch warning (Dan Carpenter)

checkpatch reports a false TYPO_SPELLING warning for some words containing
an apostrophe when run with --codespell option.
A false positive is "doesn't". Occurrence of the word causes checkpatch
to emit the following warning:
"WARNING: 'doesn'' may be misspelled - perhaps 'doesn't'?"
Modify the regex pattern to be more in line with the codespell default
word matching regex. This fixes the word capture and avoids the false
warning.
In addition, highlight the misspelled word location by adding a caret
below the word.
[akpm@linux-foundation.org: make matched misspelling more obvious, per Joe]

Modifiers %h and %hh should never be used.
Commit cbacb5ab0a ("docs: printk-formats: Stop encouraging use of
unnecessary %h[xudi] and %hh[xudi]") specifies that:
"Standard integer promotion is already done and %hx and %hhx is useless
so do not encourage the use of %hh[xudi] or %h[xudi]."
"The "h" and "hh" things should never be used. The only reason for them
being used if you have an "int", but you want to print it out as a
"char" (and honestly, that is a really bad reason, you'd be better off
just using a proper cast to make the code more obvious)."
Add a new check to emit a warning on finding an unneeded use of %h or
%hh modifier.
Also add a fix option to the check.

Currently checkpatch warns for BAD_SIGN_OFF on non-standard signature
styles.
A large number of these warnings occur because of typo mistakes in
signature tags. An evaluation over v4.13..v5.8 showed that out of 539
warnings due to non-standard signatures, 87 are due to typo mistakes.
Following are the standard signature tags which are often incorrectly
used, along with their individual counts of incorrect use (over
v4.13..v5.8):

Provide a fix by calculating levenshtein distance for the signature tag
with all the standard signatures and suggest a fix with a signature, whose
edit distance is less than or equal to 2 with the misspelled signature.
Out of the 86 mispelled signatures fixed with this approach, 85 were found
to be good corrections and 1 was bad correction.
Following was found to be a bad correction:

Currently, checkpatch warns if logical continuations are placed at the
start of a line and not at the end of previous line.
E.g., running checkpatch on commit 3485507fc2 ("staging: bcm2835-camera:

CHECK:LOGICAL_CONTINUATIONS: Logical continuations should be on the previous line
+ if (!ret
+ && camera_port ==
Provide a simple fix by inserting logical operator at the last
non-comment, non-whitespace char of the previous line and removing from
current line, if both the lines are additions(ie start with '+')

Currently checkpatch warns us for long lines in commits even for signature
tag lines.
Generally these lines exceed the 75-character limit because of:
1) long names and long email address
2) some comments on scoped review and acknowledgement, i.e., for a
dedicated pointer on what was reported by the identity in
'Reported-by'
3) some additional comments on CC: stable@vger.org tags
Exclude signature tag lines from this class of warning.
There were 1896 COMMIT_LOG_LONG_LINE warnings in v5.6..v5.8 before this
patch application and 1879 afterwards.
A quick manual check found all the dropped warnings related to signature
tags.

checkpatch doesn't report warnings for many common mistakes in emails.
Some of which are trailing commas and incorrect use of email comments.
At the same time several false positives are reported due to incorrect
handling of mail comments. The most common of which is due to the
pattern:
<stable@vger.kernel.org> # X.X
Improve email parsing in checkpatch.
Some general email rules are defined:
- Multiple name comments should not be allowed.
- Comments inside address should not be allowed.
- In general comments should be enclosed within parentheses.
Relaxation is given to comments beginning with #.
- Stable addresses should not begin with a name.
- Comments in stable addresses should begin only
with a #.
Improvements to parsing:
- Detect and report unexpected content after email.
- Quoted names are excluded from comment parsing.
- Trailing dots, commas or quotes in email are removed during
formatting. Correspondingly a BAD_SIGN_OFF warning
is emitted.
- Improperly quoted email like '"name <address>"' are now
warned about.
In addition, added fixes for all the possible rules.

commit 33def8498f ("treewide: Convert macro and uses of
__section(foo) to __section("foo")") removed the stringification of the
section name and now requires quotes around the named section.
Update checkpatch to not remove any quotes when suggesting conversion
of __attribute__((section("name"))) to __section("name")
Miscellanea:
o Add section to the hash with __section replacement
o Remove separate test for __attribute__((section
o Remove the limitation on converting attributes containing only
known, possible conversions. Any unknown attribute types are now
left as-is and known types are converted and moved before
__attribute__ and removed from within the __attribute__((list...)).

It is generally preferred that the macros from
include/linux/compiler_attributes.h are used, unless there is a reason not
to.
checkpatch currently checks __attribute__ for each of packed, aligned,
section, printf, scanf, and weak. Other declarations in
compiler_attributes.h are not handled.
Add a generic test to check the presence of such attributes. Some
attributes require more specific handling and are kept separate.
Also add fixes to the generic attributes check to substitute the correct
conversions.
New attributes which are now handled are:
__always_inline__
__assume_aligned__(a, ## __VA_ARGS__)
__cold__
__const__
__copy__(symbol)
__designated_init__
__externally_visible__
__gnu_inline__
__malloc__
__mode__(x)
__no_caller_saved_registers__
__noclone__
__noinline__
__nonstring__
__noreturn__
__pure__
__unused__
__used__
Declarations which contain multiple attributes like
__attribute__((__packed__, __cold__)) are also handled except when proper
conversions for one or more attributes of the list cannot be determined.
