Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: auto detect codespell dictionary path
Date: Mon, 10 May 2021 22:41:27 +0530	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210510171127.15056-1-dwaipayanray1@gmail.com> (raw)

The codespell dictionary was moved from
`/usr/share/codespell/dictionary.txt` to data/dictionary.txt
under the codespell_lib installation directory.

Checkpatch still uses a default absolute path for it which will
no longer work on new codespell installations unless the path
is specified through --codespellfile.

Detect the codespell dictionary path dynamically during
runtime if the default path or the user provided dictionary
path does not exist.
