Guys, I think this is a false positive warning. When I add a config to Kconfig, checkpatch complains WARNING: please write a paragraph that describes the config symbol fully #70: FILE: arch/powerpc/cpu/mpc85xx/Kconfig:33: +config TARGET_FOO_FOO total: 0 errors, 1 warnings, 0 checks, 2276 lines checked How can I get rid of this one?
