From 3965292ad0ca70320f1c632f2ac3b886c88b9e80 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Liao Chang Date: Fri, 4 Nov 2022 15:05:23 +0800 Subject: checkpatch: add check for array allocator family argument order These array allocator family are sometimes misused with the first and second arguments switched. Same issue with calloc, kvcalloc, kvmalloc_array etc. Bleat if sizeof is the first argument.
