list iterator spacing: clang-format vs checkpatch

Hi Joe, Miguel, others,

The shiny new .clang-format file lists a number of nice iterators in
the ForEachMacros category, the consequence being that there is a
space between the iterator name and the opening parenthesis. This
strikes me as the right thing to do.

However, checkpatch.pl complains about it:

WARNING: space prohibited between function name and open parenthesis '('
#65: FILE: ratelimiter.c:65:
+ hlist_for_each_entry_safe (entry, temp, &table_v4[i], hash) {

It would seem that .clang-format is right and checkpatch.pl is wrong?

Thanks,
Jason
