    Yes, that too. But I actually meant you missed "be" between "couldn't" and 
"caught"...

    Contrariwise, that's what you shouldn't do. Would simplify searching for

    Option -f tells checkpatch.pl that it should check a source file, not a 
patch. I don't know why you use that with the patches...
