Pull the changes from cilium/image-tools#121:
The checkpatch.pl script is now run for all commits of the PR, instead of just the commits touching files under
bpf/
. We do not want to check the code in directories other thanbpf/
; the interest here is to run the checks on the commit log messages. Therefore, pass commit logs without a diff to checkpatch for commits unrelated tobpf/
. This makes more checks but note that passing checkpatch is not currently required by the CI for validating the PRs on the Cilium repository.Format errors and warnings based on the available workflow commands for GitHub Actions. This should make the output easier to read on GitHub.
Update the checkpatch.pl patch itself (and its spelling file) from the version coming with kernel 5.12.
