[PATCH 44/49] scripts/checkpatch: Check for Reviewed-by under --strict

Chris Wilson chris at chris-wilson.co.uk
Fri Nov 11 20:40:13 UTC 2016


Some subsystem polices have a strict requirement that every patch must
have at least one reviewer before being approved for upstream. Since
encouraging review is good policy (great review is even better policy!)
enforce checking for a Reviewed-by when checkpath is run with --strict
(or with --review).
