Subject[PATCH] checkpatch: Handle long multi-line macros better
Date
Currently, the checkpatch throws an error on long macro expressions which
is more than one line i.e the opening and the closing bracket pair not
being on the same line. This patch gives the dangling backslash the
benefit of doubt and allows it to consider the closing paranthesis on the
next line as part of the macro expression and doesn't throw an error.
