[PATCH v2 1/1] scripts/checkpatch.pl: avoid false warning missing break

[Heinrich Schuchardt]

void foo(int a)
	switch (a) {
	case 'h':
		fun1();
		exit(1);
	default:
}

creates a warning
Possible switch case/default not preceded by break
or fallthrough comment

exit( should be treated like return.

v2:
	Allow whitespace between 'exit' and '('.
