[PATCH] update checkpatch.pl to version 0.09

From: Andy Whitcroft
Date: Fri Aug 03 2007 - 12:09:12 EST



This version brings a number of new checks, and a number of bug
fixes. Of note:

- checks for spacing on round and square bracket combinations
- loosening of the single statement brace checks, to allow
them when they contain comments or where other blocks in a
compound statement have them.
- parks the multple declaration support
- allows architecture defines in architecture specific headers

Andy Whitcroft (21):
Version: 0.09
loosen single statement brace checks
fix up multiple declaration to avoid function arguments
add some function space parenthesis check exceptions
handle EXPORT_'s with parentheses in their names
clean up some warnings in multi-line macro bracketing support
park the multiple declaration checks
make block brace checks count comments as a statement
__volatile__ and __extension__ are not functions
allow architecture specific defined within architecture includes
check spacing on square brackets
check spacing on parentheses
ensure we apply checks to the part before start comment
check #ifdef conditional spacing
handle __init_refok and __must_check
add noinline to inline checks
prevent email addresses from tripping spacing checks
handle typed initialiser spacing
handle line contination as end of line
add bool to the type matcher
refine EXPORT_SYMBOL checks to handle pointers
