From 61135e966367eda5056504ffd2f7518eaf77e25b Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Joe Perches Date: Wed, 11 Sep 2013 14:23:59 -0700 Subject: checkpatch: fix networking kernel-doc block comment defect checkpatch can generate a false positive when inserting a new kernel-doc block and function above an existing kernel-doc block. Fix it by checking that the context line is also a newly inserted line.
