Done. That said:
-K: phylink +K: phylink\.h|struct\s+phylink|\.phylink|>phylink_|phylink_(autoneg|clear|connect|create|destroy|disconnect|ethtool|helper|mac|mii|of|set|start|stop|test|validate)
That's a very awkward pattern. I wonder if there could be better ways
to express this (ie "only apply this pattern to these files" kind of
thing)
Isn't the 'F' pattern already complete enough that maybe the K pattern
isn't even worth it?
Just a thought, no biggie.
