Subject: checkpatch: warn when a MAINTAINERS entry isn't [A-Z]:\t
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=628f91a28649d063a048629d9d15b3e5c4dcaa37;p=GitHub%2Fmoto-9609%2Fandroid_kernel_motorola_exynos9610.git

checkpatch: warn when a MAINTAINERS entry isn't [A-Z]:\t

For consistency, MAINTAINERS entries should be an upper case letter,
then a colon, then a tab, then the value.

Warn when an entry doesn't have this form.  --fix it too.
