That's our normal practice, but checkpatches.sh flagged them as warnings.   If these are acceptable exceptions to the tool then are there plans to publish an exhaustive list of checkpatches.sh errors/warnings/checks that can be ignored?  Alternatively, are there plans to change the tools to ignore these automatically and not flag them as issues.   As a contributor it is difficult to tell what will be deemed acceptable and what will not (in some cases) so the default position is to fix all issues before submission.
