Re: [PATCH v3 3/8] patman: invoke the checkpatch.pl script with '--u-boot' and '--strict'

[Sjoerd Simons <sjoerd@collabora.com>]

This breaks using patman for linux as it's check-patch has no clue
about `--u-boot` :).  I'm not sure if people using patman for linux
patches is meant to be a supported use-case though (the documentation
seems to indicate it is)
