There is a change in the patchworks checkpatch test the wants to see this as:

test_data = kzalloc_obj(*test_data, GFP_KERNEL);

Unfortunately, the net-next repo does not yet have this api and doesn't
have the checkpatch and the new api that comes in:

Commit 070580b0b174 ("checkpatch: Suggest kmalloc_obj family for sizeof allocations")

This looks like the checkpatch.pl in the test is not from net-next/main.

I suspect your local tree is old? Or I don't get what you're saying..

Sorry.   I must have messed up the rebase.

The lastest next-next DOES have the correct API.

v4 on the way.
