The Docs came first. I patched checkpatch shortly after the docs were
added but sent it to the wrong place so it never landed. FYI here is
the original thread on LKML
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/6/1083
It includes some discussion on the topic. I did laugh to see even
Linus' name on an incorrect usage of the tag.
Hope this helps,
Tobin.
