Subject: [PATCH 1/3] checkpatch: add Kconfig 'default n' test
Date: Thu, 21 Apr 2016 21:28:03 +0800	[thread overview]
Message-ID: <1461245285-14918-1-git-send-email-yingjoe.chen@mediatek.com> (raw)

If a Kconfig config option doesn't specify 'default', the default
will be n. Adding 'default n' is unnecessary.

Add a test to warn about this.
