Hi,

Usually when a patch is backported to release 3.7 branch it contains the 
following from the patch already merged in master:

     Change-Id: Ib878f39814af566b9250cf6b8ed47da0ca5b1128
     BUG: 1226120

While trying to send this patch from release 3.7 branch I am getting the 
following error from checkpatch.pl which is not letting me
send the patch, and this is new because it didn't use to happen earlier.

# ./extras/checkpatch.pl

Patch not according to coding guidelines! please fix.
total: 2 errors, 0 warnings, 326 lines checked

Why is checkpatch unable to reference the gerrit url?

Regards,
Avra
