Subject: checkpatch: add more userspace directories to is_userspace()
Date: Fri, 4 Sep 2026 13:02:27 +0200

Patch series "checkpatch: userspace improvements", v6.

Few improvements for user space code + --userspace option for projects
which vendored checkpatch.pl.

There could be probably more checks which are kernel space only.


This patch (of 4):

arch/ directory contains subdirectories with userspace tools (at least
arch/*/tools/ and arch/*/boot/tools/).  Add check to consider any
arch/.*/tools/ subdirectory as userspace tools directory.

This helps not only to strscpy() checks but also to CamelCase checks in
the next commit to be more precise.

This is a follow-up to 99b70ece33d8 ("checkpatch: suppress strscpy
warnings for userspace tools").
