That's not in CodingStyle currently.
Right now, checkpatch emits a --strict only warning on "&&" or "||"
at the beginning of line but that could be changed to any "$Operators"
our $Arithmetic = qr{\+|-|\*|\/|%};
our $Operators = qr{
<=|>=|==|!=|
=>|->|<<|>>|<|>|!|~|
&&|\|\||,|\^|\+\+|--|&|\||$Arithmetic
}x;
The ones that likely have a too high false positive rates
are the negation "!" and bitwise "~".
Also, using perl, it's hard to distinguish between a
logical "&" and the address-of "&" as well as the
multiplication "*" and indirection "*" so maybe those
should be excluded too.
And I think it should only be added as a --strict test.
