Since commit 66b47b4a9dad00e45c049d79966de9a3a1f4d337 Author: Kees Cook <keescook@chromium.org> Date: Mon Oct 13 15:51:57 2014 -0700
checkpatch: look for common misspellings
checkpatch.pl dies with
checkpatch.pl: Can't open /path/to/spelling.txt for reading: No such file or directory
if it's called through a symlink in /path/to/checkpatch.pl pointing at the actual script.
Please fail graciously, and just ignore spelling if you can't find spelling.txt. Or better yet, follow the links if you can.
Thanks, Jani.
