Hi,

[adding Joe Perches]

maybe checkpatch could be instrumented for that?

Something that would print a warning if the MAINTAINERS file has a git 
repo in T: or if F: states something related to 'net'.


WARNING: Your patch is against the xxx.git repo but the subject of the 
mail does not reflect it. Should [PATCH xxx] be used instead?
Also make sure that it applies cleanly on xxx.git to ease merge process.

WARNING: Your patch is related to 'net'. Such patches should state 
[PATCH net] when related to bug fix, or [PATCH net-next] otherwise.

Eventually, something if net-next is closed?


What do you think?
Would it be possible? Would it help?
