2008-10-16checkpatch: trailing statements ensure we report the end of the lineAndy Whitcroft
When reporting some complex trailing statements we report only the starting line of the error, that tends to imply the shown line is in error and confuse the reader. As we do know where the actual error is report that line too with an appropriate gap marker where applicable. #ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line #1: FILE: Z202.c:1: + for (pbh = page_buffers(bh->b_page); pbh != bh; + pbh = pbh->b_this_page, key++); #ERROR: trailing statements should be on next line #4: FILE: Z202.c:4: + for (pbh = page_buffers(bh->b_page); [...] + pbh = pbh->b_this_page, key++); Signed-off-by: Andy Whitcroft <apw@shadowen.org> Signed-off-by: Andrew Morton <akpm@linux-foundation.org> Signed-off-by: Linus Torvalds <torvalds@linux-foundation.org>
2008-10-16checkpatch: DEFINE_ macros are real definitions for exportsAndy Whitcroft
When we want to confirm an export is directly after its definition we need to allow for DEFINE_ style macros. Add these to the execeptions. Refactor the exceptions.

2008-10-16checkpatch: suspect code indent must stop at #else/#elifAndy Whitcroft

2008-10-16checkpatch: macros which define structure members are not complexAndy Whitcroft
We often see macros which define structure members, these are not complex and necessarily do not have braces or brackets.
