From 6534086aa684248f779944a2ac9253d6d637eec6 Mon Sep 17 00:00:00 2001 From: Anna-Maria Behnsen Date: Mon, 14 Oct 2024 10:22:27 +0200 Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Remove links to outdated documentation checkpatch.pl checks for several things related to sleep and delay functions. In all warnings the outdated documentation is referenced. Also in checkpatch kernel documentation the outdated documentation is referenced. Replace the links to the outdated documentation with links to the function description. Note: Update of the outdated checkpatch checks is done in a second step.
