Hi Tom,

Sorry to bother you.

I am curious that for me myself I had no issue to follow
the requirements [1] as long as all patches that are
passing the review stage do follow the rules in [1].
However based on most recent commits and reviews
most of those are not even close to what [1] mentioned.

So at the end, reviewers in U-Boot just made their own
standard and requested contributors to follow?

Rather the U-Boot itself should all follow the docs rules?

Thanks,
Brian
