From 3e2232f2d03ffa531e31662c447496ec2552d85b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Perches Date: Thu, 23 Jan 2014 15:54:48 -0800 Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: update the FSF/GPL address check The FSF address check is a bit too verbose looking for the GPL text. Quiet it a bit by requiring --strict for the GPL bit. Also make the address tests match a few uses of abbreviations for street names and make it case insensitive.
