Subject: [PATCH 4/4] checkpatch: add check for tag Co-Developed-by

From: Joe Perches <joe@...ches.com>

Recently signature tag Co-Developed-by was added to the
kernel (Documentation/process/5.Posting.rst). checkpatch.pl doesn't know
about it yet. All prior tags used all lowercase characters except for first
character. Checks for this format had to be re-worked to allow for the
new tag.

Greg,

This patch has the same brief commit and achieves the same aim as the
code you reviewed. I'm adding your tag here even though the code is
totally different. I believe you were reviewing the behaviour of the
code not the actual logic.

Yell if I'm wrong.

thanks,
Tobin.
