[PATCH v3 6/6] dtc: dt-check-style: Handle properly DTC-style includes

From: Krzysztof Kozlowski <hidden>
Date: 2026-07-06 15:54:05
Also in: lkml
Subsystem: open firmware and flattened device tree, the rest · Maintainers: Rob Herring, Saravana Kannan, Linus Torvalds

dt-check-style was not properly handling DTC directives (starting with
'/', e.g. /dts-v1/ or /include/), thus a few DTS files had false
positive like:

  apm/apm-merlin.dts:1: [indent-unit-dts] indent unit must be 1 tab in DTS, got '\t\t'

Signed-off-by: Krzysztof Kozlowski <redacted>
