  Enable turning on codespell from any of the config files for
checkpatches.sh. codespell is a feature by checkpatch.pl that
checks for common spelling mistakes in comments in patches.

This feature is disabled by default. To enable it one must add
the '--codespell' flag to the $options variable in
checkpatches.sh. With this change the user can decide to turn
on codespell from a config file rather than directly modifying
checkpatches.sh

Oh nice, I didn't know checkpatch had a spell check available.

Would it make sense to turn on automatically if the required spelling program is available?

(Perhaps provide an explicit disable if certain people hate the idea..)

I'm a +1 for tools just doing the right thing by default :)
