checkpatch: validate signature styles and To: and Cc: lines
Signatures have many forms and can sometimes cause problems if not in the correct format when using git send-email or quilt. Try to verify the signature tags and email addresses to use the generally accepted "Signed-off-by: Full Name <email@domain.tld>" form.
