Andy Whitcroft 4801205864 checkpatch: DEFINE_ macros are real definitions for exports
When we want to confirm an export is directly after its definition we need
to allow for DEFINE_ style macros.  Add these to the execeptions.
Refactor the exceptions.

Andy Whitcroft bf30d6ede0 checkpatch: complex macros checks miss square brackets
We are missing 'simple' values which include square brackets.  Refactor to

Andy Whitcroft b132e5d586 checkpatch: macros which define structure members are not complex
We often see macros which define structure members, these are not complex
and necessarily do not have braces or brackets.  For example:

    #define _PLIST_HEAD_INIT(head)                      \
        .prio_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).prio_list),  \

it can be used by each architecture specific IOMMU implementations.  The
series also changes IOMMU implementations for X86, Alpha, PowerPC and
UltraSparc.  The other implementations are not yet changed because the
modifications required are not obvious and I can't test them on real
hardware.

Nothing arch specific in get/settimeofday.  The details of the timeval
conversion varied a little from arch to arch, but all with the same
results.

Also add an extern declaration for sys_tz to linux/time.h because externs
in .c files are fowned upon.  I'll kill the externs in various other files
in a sparate patch.

struct stat / compat_stat is the same on all architectures, so
cp_compat_stat should be, too.

Turns out it is, except that various architectures have slightly and some
high2lowuid/high2lowgid or the direct assignment instead of the
SET_UID/SET_GID that expands to the correct one anyway.

This patch replaces the arch-specific cp_compat_stat implementations with
a common one based on the x86-64 one.

Add documentation in kerneldoc for new printk format extensions

This patch documents the new %pS/%pF options in printk in kernel doc.

Hope I didn't miss any other extension.
