    Hi Thierry,

    I've sent more or less 10 similar patches against files updated
    recently, that is to say against files which are actively maintained.

    I've done it to get feedback on the acceptances rate of such proposals.
    The goal is not to flood everyone with such patches, but rather to see
    if adding a new kind of test to checkpatch.pl makes sense.

    Being able to detect early missing trailing '\n' would help maintainers
    and patch providers.

    You are the 2nd person (I've added Paul Cercueil in copy of my reply)
    who reports that he is thinking that it is no more required to add a '\n'.


    If you have any pointer about it, it would be much appreciated.

    It would mean, that either this additional checkpatch test is useless,
    or maybe that it should be reversed and spot *un*needed '\n'.

    CJ
