checkpatch: fix 'return is not a function' square bracket handling
We are incorrectly matching square brackets '[' and ']' leading to false

checkpatch: optimise statement scanner when mid-statement
In the middle of a long definition or similar, there is no possibility of
finding a smaller sub-statement.  Optimise this case by skipping statement
aquirey where there are no starts of statement (open brace '{' or
semi-colon ';').  We are likely to scan slightly more than needed still
but this is safest.

checkpatch: improve memset and min/max with cast checking
Improve the checking of arguments to memset and min/max tests.

Move the checking of min/max to statement blocks instead of single line.
Change $Constant to allow any case type 0x initiator and trailing ul
specifier.  Add $FuncArg type as any function argument with or without a
cast.  Print the whole statement when showing memset or min/max messages.
Improve the memset with 0 as 3rd argument error message.

There are still weaknesses in the $FuncArg and $Constant code as arbitrary
parentheses and negative signs are not generically supported.

checkpatch: correctly track the end of preprocessor commands in context
When looking for a statement we currently run on through preprocessor
commands.  This means that a header file with just definitions is parsed
over and over again combining all of the lines from the current line to
the end of file leading to severe performance issues.

Fix up context accumulation to track preprocessor commands and stop when
reaching the end of them.  At the same time vastly simplify the #define
handling.

script/checkpatch.pl: warn about deprecated use of EXTRA_{A,C,CPP,LD}FLAGS

    Date:   Mon Oct 15 22:25:06 2007 +0200

        kbuild: introduce ccflags-y, asflags-y and ldflags-y

Moreover, these flags (at least EXTRA_CFLAGS) have been documented for command
line use. By default, gmake(1) do not override command line setting, so this is
likely to result in build failure or unexpected behavior.

Warn about their introduction in Makefile or Kbuild files.

checkpatch: suggest using min_t or max_t
A common issue with min() or max() is using a cast on one or both of the
arguments when using min_t/max_t could be better.

Add cast detection to uses of min/max and suggest an appropriate use of
min_t or max_t instead.

Caveat:  This only works for min() or max() on a single line.
         It does not find min() or max() split across multiple lines.

This does find:
	min((u32)foo, bar);
But it does not find:
	max((unsigned long)foo,
	    bar);

scripts/checkpatch.pl: reset rpt_cleaners warnings
If you run checkpatch against multiple patches, and one of them has a
whitespace issue which can be helped via a script (rpt_cleaners), you will
see the same NOTE over and over for all subsequent patches.  It makes it
seem like those patches also have whitespace problems when in reality,
there's only one or two bad apples.

So reset rpt_cleaners back to 0 after we've issued the note so that it
only shows up near the patch with the actual problems.

kstrto*: converting strings to integers done (hopefully) right
1. simple_strto*() do not contain overflow checks and crufty,
   libc way to indicate failure.
2. strict_strto*() also do not have overflow checks but the name and
   comments pretend they do.
3. Both families have only "long long" and "long" variants,
   but users want strtou8()
4. Both "simple" and "strict" prefixes are wrong:
   Simple doesn't exactly say what's so simple, strict should not exist
   because conversion should be strict by default.

The solution is to use "k" prefix and add convertors for more types.
Enter
	kstrtoull()
	kstrtoll()
	kstrtoul()
	kstrtol()
	kstrtouint()
	kstrtoint()

	kstrtou64()
	kstrtos64()
	kstrtou32()
	kstrtos32()
	kstrtou16()
	kstrtos16()
	kstrtou8()
	kstrtos8()

Include runtime testsuite (somewhat incomplete) as well.

strict_strto*() become deprecated, stubbed to kstrto*() and
eventually will be removed altogether.

Use kstrto*() in code today!

Note: on some archs _kstrtoul() and _kstrtol() are left in tree, even if
      they'll be unused at runtime. This is temporarily solution,
      because I don't want to hardcode list of archs where these
      functions aren't needed. Current solution with sizeof() and
      __alignof__ at least always works.

checkpatch.pl: fix CAST detection
We should only claim that something is a cast if we did not encouter a
token before, that did set av_pending.

This fixes the operator * in the line below to be detected as binary (vs
unary).

kmalloc(sizeof(struct alphatrack_ocmd) * true_size, GFP_KERNEL);

checkpatch: statement/block context analyser should look at sanitised lines
When tracking context to find a block or statement we need to use the
sanitised lines, else perentheses '(' & ')' and braces '{' & '}' can throw
the scanner out.  Also fix up a couple of error outputs which include
those sanitised lines incorrectly.

Perhaps these need to be added to checkpatch.

checkpatch: check for incorrect permissions
Throw an error when a source file has been given execute permissions using
the mode change line present in git diffs.  Also alow the filename
matching to use the "diff" line in addition to the "+++" line, since the
mode change lines appear before any "+++" lines.
