[PATCH] checkpatch: Improve tests for multiple line function definitions
From: Joe Perches
Date: Wed Jun 07 2017 - 07:36:27 EST
Add a block that identifies multiple line function definitions.
Save the function name into $context_function to improve the embedded
function name test.
Look for misplaced open brace on the function definition.
Emit an OPEN_BRACE error when the function definition is similar to
void foo(int arg1,
int arg2) {
Miscellanea:
o Remove the $realfile test in function declaration w/o named arguments test
o Comment the function declaration w/o named arguments test
