checkpatch: EXPORT_SYMBOL() false positive

[Geert Uytterhoeven]

	Hi Andy,

A patch from Finn causes a false positive in checkpatch:

| WARNING: EXPORT_SYMBOL(foo); should immediately follow its function/variable
| #13: FILE: arch/m68k/mac/config.c:801:
| +EXPORT_SYMBOL(scc_a_pdev);

Test case from the patch:

--- a/arch/m68k/mac/config.c
+++ b/arch/m68k/mac/config.c
@@ -792,6 +792,32 @@ static struct mac_model mac_data_table[] = {
