If I run checkpatch without --mailback, I correctly get an error report about the missing Signed-off-by:

    $ cat /tmp/test.patch | ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --terse --no-summary --strict --showfile
    Documentation/hwmon/oxp-sensors.rst:59: ERROR: Missing Signed-off-by: line(s)

However, if I add --mailback, the error disappears and the script exits with 0, though the output should remain exactly the same.
