Thanks! I used to do the checks one by one:

        scripts/checkpatch.pl `quilt top`

I'll switch to this script for more productive and complete checks:

        #!/bin/sh
        # Usage: ./check-series < patches/series

        CHECKPATCH=/usr/src/linux/scripts/checkpatch.pl

        while read patch
        do     
                scripts/checkpatch.pl patches/$patch
        done

Thanks,
