From 7da07c31b1df1fa973d184378862443302fd1129 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Dwaipayan Ray Date: Tue, 15 Dec 2020 20:45:21 -0800 Subject: checkpatch: fix TYPO_SPELLING check for words with apostrophe checkpatch reports a false TYPO_SPELLING warning for some words containing an apostrophe when run with --codespell option. A false positive is "doesn't". Occurrence of the word causes checkpatch to emit the following warning: "WARNING: 'doesn'' may be misspelled - perhaps 'doesn't'?" Modify the regex pattern to be more in line with the codespell default word matching regex. This fixes the word capture and avoids the false warning. In addition, highlight the misspelled word location by adding a caret below the word.
