Subject: checkpatch: handle EXPORT_SYMBOL for DEVICE_ATTR and similar
X-Git-Url: http://git.cdn.openwrt.org/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=3cbf62df3a8ce61cb1aa20b7dae964058988bfdd;p=openwrt%2Fstaging%2Fblogic.git

checkpatch: handle EXPORT_SYMBOL for DEVICE_ATTR and similar

Handly definitions similar to below.  The definition macro spits out a
symbol with a prefix.  Add matching of any identifier prefix:

    DEVICE_ATTR(link_power_management_policy, S_IRUGO | S_IWUSR,
            ata_scsi_lpm_show, ata_scsi_lpm_put);
    EXPORT_SYMBOL_GPL(dev_attr_link_power_management_policy);
