Hi Miguel,

As Joel also was hinting at, is there any easy way to get this sort
of thing automatically checked? This is what scripts/checkpatch.pl
helps us out with on the C side, and maybe it is also the right
tool for Rust...?

It's sad to have a patchset pass both checkpatch.pl, and CLIPPY=1 
builds, and yet still be full of typography and convention 
violations.


thanks,
