Tip:

# tools/checkpatch --full --yes | grep -v "No name 'client' in module"

You can run it in parallel with tools/run_unittests.py also :D

Sometimes I run them both three times to make sure I have good karma
j/k.  But there's no harm in running more than once, only harm in
forgetting to run at all :S
