[PATCH 09/27] scripts/documentation-file-ref-check: don't check perl/python scripts
From: Mauro Carvalho Chehab
Date: Mon Feb 10 2025 - 05:20:16 EST
Such scripts may have regular expressions, which would make the
parser confusing. Also, they shouldn't hardcode filenames there,
so skipping them is OK.
While here, also don't check references on extensions used for file
backup and patch rej/orig.
