Sure that sounds good to me. We could even combine the scripts to
create something more efficient probably.
Here is the one I use for generating the checkpatch output data over
the supplied commits:
https://gist.github.com/raydwaipayan/57cc003e74618fe8de8917bc343fd234
(Multithreaded and semaphores to eliminate races between threads
to write to file)
For generating summary:
https://gist.github.com/raydwaipayan/9e1f340e3e892bd48a2c972f0517698d
For comparisons and individual warnings I usually rely on diff and grep.
Thanks,
Dwaipayan.
