[RFC v2 04/12] checkpatch: add support for struct MOCK(foo) syntax

From: Daniel Latypov
Date: Mon Oct 12 2020 - 18:21:32 EST


From: Brendan Higgins <brendanhiggins@xxxxxxxxxx>

KUnit will soon add macros for generating mocks from types, the
generated mock types are named like `struct MOCK(foo)` (where the base
type is struct foo).

Add `struct MOCK(foo)` as a NonptrType so that it is recognized
correctly in declarations.
