Joe Perches a2fe16b9d8 checkpatch: try to avoid poor patch subject lines
Naming the tool that found an issue in the subject line isn't very useful.
 Emit a warning when a common tool (currently checkpatch, sparse or
smatch) is in the subject line.

bsd and sysv use different typedefs for unsigned types.

These are in types.h but not in checkpatch, so add them to checkpatch's

This can avoid false positives for code like:

Julius Werner f512357646 checkpatch: allow certain SI units with three characters
Checkpatch flags CamelCase identifiers in strict mode, but it has a
feature to ignore parts with only two characters to allow for SI units
like mV or uA.  Unfortunately, not all SI units fit in two characters, and
not all are lower case followed by upper case.

This patch adds hardcoded detection for frequency and 1024-based size
units (Hz/KHz/MHz/GHz/THz and KiB/MiB/GiB/TiB), since allowing any three
character combinations might be too lenient.  The list can later be
expanded as needed.

Sergey Ryazanov cdcee686ee checkpatch: update $allowed_asm_includes macros, add reboot.h and time.h
Several architectures (e.g.  x86, MIPS, Blackfin) have asm/reboot.h and
asm/time.h header files, which are not included in linux/reboot.h and
linux/time.h headers.  This lead to generation of false positive errors.

Joe Perches 6688173507 checkpatch: allow commit descriptions on separate line from commit id
The general form for commit id and description is

  'Commit <12+hexdigits> ("commit description/subject line")'

but commit logs often have relatively long commit ids and the commit
description emds on the next line like:

  Some explanation as to why commit <12+hexdigits>
  ("commit foo description/subject line") is improved.

Allow this form.

Joe Perches 3f6316b437 checkpatch: relax check for length of git commit IDs
Checkpatch currently warns if a git commit ID (in the changelog,
usually) is less than 12 characters or more than 16.  The "more than 16"
is excessive.  Change the check so we accept IDs from 12 to 40 chars in
length.

Joe Perches f842230874 checkpatch: update $declaration_macros, add uninitialized_var
Using uninitialized_var reports a false positive for "Missing blank line
after declarations".

Fix it by adding uninitialized_var to the $declaration_macros exceptions
list.

Move the macro list after $Type is declared.

Add optional prefixes to DECLARE_<FOO> and DEFINE_<BAR>
macro declarations to allow forms like:
	MLX4_DECLARE_DOORBELL_LOCK

Dan Carpenter ece9659f16 checkpatch: warn on missing spaces in broken up quoted
Checkpatch already complains when people break up quoted strings but
it's still pretty common.  One mistake that people often make is they
leave out the space character between the two strings.

This check adds around 450 new warnings and has a low rate of false
positives.

Commit 89da401f6cff ("checkpatch: improve "no space after cast" test")
in -next improved the cast test for non pointer types, but also
introduced false positives for some types of static inlines.

Add a test for an open brace to the exclusions to avoid these false
positives.

Joe Perches e81f239b4d checkpatch: fix false positive MISSING_BREAK warnings with --file
Using --file mode can give false positives with MISSING_BREAK
fall-through warnings on simple but long multiple consecutive case
statements.

Look for all lines before a case statement for a switch or a statement
when using --file mode.

Fix a misspelling of preceded while there.

Joe Perches 1813087dbc checkpatch: add test for native c90 types in unusual order
c90 section "6.7.2 Type Specifiers" says:
    "type specifiers may occur in any order"

That means that:
    short int is the same as int short
    unsigned short int is the same as int unsigned short
    etc...

checkpatch currently parses only a subset of these allowed types.

For instance: "unsigned short" and "signed short" are found by
checkpatch as a specific type, but none of the or "int short" or "int
signed short" variants are found.

Add another table for the "kernel style misordered" variants.

Add this misordered table to the findable types.

Warn when the misordered style is used.

This improves the "Missing a blank line after declarations" test as it
depends on the correct parsing of the $Declare variable which looks for
"$Type $Ident;" (ie: declarations like "int foo;").
