checkpatch: exclude four preprocessor sub-expressions from MACRO_ARG_REUSE

2021-05-07T02:24:13+00:00

__must_be_array, offsetof, sizeof_field and __stringify are all
preprocessor macros and do not evaluate their arguments.  As such, it is
safe not to warn when arguments are being reused in those four
sub-expressions.

Exclude those so that they can pass checkpatch.

checkpatch: warn when missing newline in return sysfs_emit() formats

2021-05-07T02:24:12+00:00

return sysfs_emit() uses should include a newline.

Suggest adding a newline when one is missing.
Add one using --fix too.

checkpatch: add verbose mode

2021-03-07T00:36:51+00:00

Add a new verbose mode to checkpatch.pl to emit additional verbose
test descriptions. The verbose mode is optional and can be enabled
by the flag -v or --verbose.

The test descriptions are parsed from the checkpatch documentation
file at `Documentation/dev-tools/checkpatch.rst`. The test
descriptions in the docs are kept in a fixed format grouped by
usage. Some examples of this format are:

  **LINE_SPACING**
    Vertical space is wasted given the limited number of lines an
    editor window can display when multiple blank lines are used.

  **MISSING_SIGN_OFF**
    The patch is missing a Signed-off-by line.  A signed-off-by
    line should be added according to Developer's certificate of
    Origin.

To avoid lengthy output, the verbose description is printed only
for the first instance of a particular message type.

The --verbose option cannot be used along with the --terse option.

Verbose mode can be used with the --list-types option.
The --list-types output also supports color coding now.
