[PATCH] checkpatch: Make --strict a default for files in drivers/net and net/

From: Joe Perches
Date: Wed May 07 2014 - 14:13:34 EST


Networking files are generally more strictly conformant to
linux-kernel style so make checkpatch more verbose by default for
patches to files or when checking files in these directories.
