I think, so far, I got all barebox-specifics, so updating checkpatch.pl in future should be: - copy over upstream checkpatch.pl - cherry-pick last checkpatch.pl bareboxification patch Sure, barebx checkpatch.pl may be more easily broken by this approach, but it's not part of the build and issues can be fixed as they pop up.
