Subject: [PATCH v3] checkpatch: improve email parsing
checkpatch doesn't report warnings for many common mistakes
in emails. Some of which are trailing commas and incorrect
use of email comments.
At the same time several false positives are reported due to
incorrect handling of mail comments. The most common of which
is due to the pattern:
<stable@...r.kernel.org> # X.X
Improve email parsing in checkpatch.
Some general comment rules are defined:
- Multiple name comments should not be allowed.
- Comments inside address should not be allowed.
- In general comments should be enclosed within parentheses.
Exception for stable@...r.kernel.org # X.X
Improvements to parsing:
- Detect and report unexpected content after email.
- Quoted names are excluded from comment parsing.
- Trailing dots or commas in email are removed during
formatting. Correspondingly a BAD_SIGN_OFF warning
is emitted.
- Improperly quoted email like '"name <address>"' are now
warned about.
In addition, added fixes for all the possible rules.
