[BUG] checkpatch: false positive storage class location

From: Heinrich Schuchardt

The U-Boot project uses the same scripts/checkpatch.pl as the Linux
kernel. I ran upon the problem below when working on U-Boot. But I
guess it should be fixed in the Linux upstream.

Running checkpatch for this email produces
WARNING: storage class should be at the beginning of the declaration

This relates to the parameter with asmlinkage.

asmlinkage is at the start of the parameter so I think this a false
positive.
