Here is a list of the checkpatch messages for drivers/infiniband
sorted by type.

Many of these might be corrected by using

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f --fix-inplace --types=<TYPE> \
  $(git ls-files drivers/infiniband/)

Yes, and I already did that work piece by piece for individual types,
just to test the runchecks tool, and want to post that set once the 
runchecks script and Makefile changes itself are in,

I think those are independent of any runcheck tool changes and
could be posted now.  In general, don't keep patches in a local
tree waiting on some other unrelated patch.

It becomes related in that the runchecks.cfg file is updated 
in all the patches to keep 'make C=2' run with 0 errors while 
enabling more checks. I think they serve well as examples of 
how a workflow with runchecks could be.

Just fyi:

There is a script that helps automate checkpatch "by-type" conversions
with compilation, .o difference checking, and git commit editing.

oh - good to know - seems it would have been a good help
during my little exercise..

Thanks,
