[PATCH v2] checkpatch: add DT compatible string documentation checks

From: Rob Herring
Date: Tue Dec 03 2013 - 23:17:47 EST


From: Rob Herring <rob.herring@xxxxxxxxxxx>

This adds a simple check that any compatible strings in DeviceTree dts
files are present in Documentation/devicetree/bindings. Vendor prefixes
are also checked for existing in vendor-prefixes.txt These should be
temporary checks until we have more sophisticated binding schema checking.

v2:
- Add vendor string checking against vendor-prefixes.txt
- Add '_', '.' and '+' as valid compatible string characters
- Use 'grep -E' instead of egrep
