Subject[PATCH V2] checkpatch: Improve MULTISTATEMENT_MACRO_USE_DO_WHILE test
Date
The logic currrently misses macros that start with an if statement.

e.g.: #define foo(bar) if (bar) baz;

Add a test for macro content that starts with if

V2: V1 was done incorrectly against a much older version of checkpatch
and so rolled back several improvements.
I forgot I had used git checkout <commit_id> -- scripts/checkpatch.pl
and then edited that.
