[PATCH 02/16] checkpatch: types may sit on a line on their own

From: Andy Whitcroft
Date: Wed Aug 18 2010 - 11:47:16 EST


When the following form is used we have a type which fully fills a line.
This means that a type may end at the end of line as well as at the
following identifier.

int **
foo;
