Hi,
Runnning ./scripts/checkpatch.pl -g HEAD, I get the following error:
Global symbol "$gitroot" requires explicit package name at ./scripts/checkpatch.pl line 980.
Execution of ./scripts/checkpatch.pl aborted due to compilation errors.
Reverting commit f5f613259f3f ("checkpatch: allow not using -f with files that are in git") clears
the problem.
Christophe

Thanks for the report.
The problem depended on another patch in -next
that was not send.
