Subject: [PATCH v2] checkpatch: remove obsolete check for __dev* section markers
Date: Sun, 18 Jul 2021 18:30:15 +0530 [thread overview]
Message-ID: <20210718130015.8903-1-dwaipayanray1@gmail.com> (raw)
Since commit 54b956b90360 ("Remove __dev* markings from init.h"),
the check for __dev* section markers in checkpatch is obsolete
as no new instances of these markers can be introduced in the
kernel.
Remove this obsolete check from checkpatch.
