That check is already in checkpatch. Problem is that hardly anyone runs the thing.
I think we're ready to wire checkpatch up to a email robot which monitors the mailing lists and sends people nastygrams. I bet that'll be popular ;)
(I'd love it if it could detect wordwrapped and tab-expanded patches, too. You wouldn't _believe_...) - To unsubscribe from this list: send the line "unsubscribe linux-kernel" in the body of a message to majordomo@vger.kernel.org More majordomo info at http://vger.kernel.org/majordomo-info.html Please read the FAQ at http://www.tux.org/lkml/
