From f512357646268451da0d7e1e0100c55df6c8cea6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Julius Werner Date: Wed, 10 Dec 2014 15:51:54 -0800 Subject: checkpatch: allow certain SI units with three characters Checkpatch flags CamelCase identifiers in strict mode, but it has a feature to ignore parts with only two characters to allow for SI units like mV or uA. Unfortunately, not all SI units fit in two characters, and not all are lower case followed by upper case. This patch adds hardcoded detection for frequency and 1024-based size units (Hz/KHz/MHz/GHz/THz and KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB), since allowing any three character combinations might be too lenient. The list can later be expanded as needed.
