False positive in checkpatch.pl ?

[Aseda Aboagye]

Hello CHECKPATCH maintainers,

I encountered this error when using the checkpatch.pl script
complaining about my macro.

        Errors:
            * checkpatch.pl errors/warnings

            ERROR: Macros with complex values should be enclosed in parenthesis
            #92: FILE: include/libsharedobjs.h:28:
            +#define SHAREDLIB(...) __attribute__
((section(".roshared"))) __VA_ARGS__

            total: 1 errors, 0 warnings, 45 lines checked

Since it's really an attribute, adding the parens wouldn't work. Just
thought I'd send this your way. Perhaps make an exception for cases
like these?

Thanks,
