BTW, I got something that looked like a false positive with checkpatch.pl on this patch:

ERROR: return is not a function, parentheses are not required
#56: FILE: kernel/trace/ftrace.c:1900:
+		return (void *)1;

total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 101 lines checked

0001-tracing-function-graph-tracer-make-set_graph_functi.patch has style problems, please review.  If any of these 
errors
are false positives report them to the maintainer, see
CHECKPATCH in MAINTAINERS.


It is confusing a cast with a function call.
