Linux kernel source tree
When using checkpatch on out-of-tree code, it may occur that some project-specific types are used, which will cause spurious warnings. Add the --typedefsfile option as a way to extend the known types and deal with this issue. This was developed for OP-TEE [1]. We run a Travis job on all pull requests [2], and checkpatch is part of that. The typical false warning we get on a regular basis is with some pointers to functions returning TEE_Result [3], which is a typedef from the GlobalPlatform APIs. We consider it is acceptable to use GP types in the OP-TEE core implementation, that's why this patch would be helpful for us.

Linux kernel ============ This file was moved to Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst Please notice that there are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or ``make pdfdocs``. There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory, several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation. See Documentation/00-INDEX for a list of what is contained in each file. Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
