[PATCH] checkpatch: Add a few DEVICE_ATTR style tests

From: Joe Perches
Date: Wed Dec 20 2017 - 15:58:23 EST


DEVICE_ATTR is a declaration macro that has a few alternate and
preferred forms like DEVICE_ATTR_RW, DEVICE_ATTR_RO, and DEVICE_ATTR.

As well, many uses of DEVICE_ATTR could use the preferred forms when
the show or store functions are also named in a regular form.

Suggest the preferred forms when appropriate.

Also emit a permissions warning if the the permissions are not the
typical 0644, 0444, or 0200.
