[PATCH] checkpatch: Improve macro reuse test

From: Joe Perches
Date: Mon Jun 26 2017 - 09:18:38 EST


checkpatch reports a false positive when using token pasting argument
multiple times in a macro.

Fix it.

Miscellanea:

o Make the $tmp variable name used in the macro argument tests
a bit more descriptive
