[PATCH 1/1] checkpatch: add MA_STATE to declaration_macros
From: Jim Cromie
Date: Sat Nov 08 2025 - 18:47:43 EST
MA_STATE is used repeatedly as a declaration, add it to the list.
I left out the $Storage regex component, since I saw no cases wanting
it, via: $> grep -r -B1 '\bMA_STATE' .
This change fixes the following, reproduced locally.
