When you don't use !E or !I but only !F, then it's very easy to miss
including some functions, structs etc. in documentation. To help
finding which ones were missed, allow printing out the unused ones as
warnings.For example, using this on mac80211 yields a lot of warnings like this:
Warning: didn't use docs for DOC: mac80211 workqueue
Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_max_queues
Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_change
Warning: didn't use docs for ieee80211_bss_confwhen generating the documentation for it.

hg repository. No fix for svn: If the kernel source is not tracked in
the svn repository, it works as expected, otherwise determining the
'repository root' is not really a defined task.Reported-and-tested-by: Dan McGee

Following sample Kconfig generated a segfault:

boolconfig HAVE_HW_BREAKPOINT

property on the stack of symbols.The above pattern were seen in sh Kconfig.

savedefconfig failed to save the correct minimal config
when it encountered a choice marked optional.Consider following minimal configuration:
$cat Kconfig
choice
prompt "choice"
optionalconfig A
bool "a"config B
bool "b"endchoice
$cat .config | grep -v ^#
CONFIG_A=y$conf --savedefconfig=defconfig Kconfig
would before this fix result in an empty file, because
kconfig would assume that CONFIG_A=y is a default value.
But because the choice is optional the default is that
both A and B are =n.Fix so we handle optional choices correct.

If a minimal config did not specify the value
of all choice values, the resulting configuration
could have wrong values.Consider following example:
config M
def_bool y
option modules
choice
prompt "choice list"
config A
tristate "a"
config B
tristate "b"
endchoiceWith a defconfig like this:
CONFIG_M=y
CONFIG_A=yThe resulting configuration would have
CONFIG_A=m
which was unexpected.
The problem was not not all choice values were set and thus
kconfig calculated a wrong value.The fix is to set all choice values when we
read a defconfig files.conf_set_all_new_symbols() is refactored such that
random choice values are now handled by a dedicated function.
And new choice values are set by set_all_choice_values().This was not the minimal fix, but the fix that resulted
in the most readable code.Signed-off-by: Sam Ravnborg

These are caused by checkpatch incorrectly parsing its internal
representation of a statement block for struct's (or anything else that is
a statement block encapsulated in {}'s that also ends with a ';'). Fix
this by properly parsing a statement block.An example:
+struct dummy_type dummy = {
+ .foo = "baz",
+};
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy);
+
+static int dummy_func(void)
+{
+ return -EDUMMYCODE;
+}
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy_func);WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately \
follow its function/variable
#19: FILE: dummy.c:4:
+EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dummy);The above warning is issued when it should not be.

I've got a false positive when spaces are present at the beginning of a

+ int clk_div;

+static struct davinci_mcbsp_data mcbsp_data;Where, before the string "int clk_div", I have 4 spaces (\040
ascii character).With v2.6.34 scripts/checkpatch.pl script I get:
