Subject: [PATCH 2/2] checkpatch: Add --strict test for precedence challenged macro arguments
Date: Mon, 12 Sep 2016 22:43:03 -0700	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <940815449599d405bfcf8e4c5d511a8fb3ca23bf.1473744906.git.joe@perches.com> (raw)
In-Reply-To: <cover.1473744906.git.joe@perches.com>

Add a test for macro arguents that have a non-comma leading or trailing
operator where the argument isn't parenthesized to avoid possible precedence
issues.
