[PATCH 00/13] checkpatch: update to version 0.24

From: Andy Whitcroft
Date: Fri Oct 03 2008 - 11:27:56 EST


This update brings a large number of small fixes to existing checks.
Of note:

- fixes up a number of false type detections,
- code indent checks handle macros and continuation,
- complex macro detection handles square bracket nesting correctly, and
- better comment handling for case.

Complete changelog below.
