These declarations should generally be static const to avoid poor
compilation and runtime performance where compilers tend to initialize
the const declaration for every call instead of using .rodata for the
string.

This warning was there to avoid the use of 0bxxx values as they are not
supported by gcc prior to v4.3

Since cafa0010 ("Raise the minimum required gcc version to 4.6"),
it's not an issue anymore and using such values can increase readability
of code.

__ro_after_init is a specific __attribute__ that checkpatch does currently
not understand.

Add it to the known $Attribute types so that code that uses variables
declared with __ro_after_init are not thought to be a modifier type.

This appears as a defect in checkpatch output of code like:

static bool trust_cpu __ro_after_init = IS_ENABLED(CONFIG_RANDOM_TRUST_CPU);
[...]
       if (trust_cpu && arch_init) {

where checkpatch reports:

checkpatch uses the in-kernel script spdxcheck.py to validate the specific
license in a file or script.

This check can currently fail for a couple reasons:

o spdxcheck.py assumes the existence of git tree that may not
  exist for a bare source tree from something like a tarball
o the spdxcheck.py must be run from the top level root directory

So add a git existence test and set the subprocess subdirectory.

Multiple line macro definitions where the arguments are separated by line
continuations can cause checkpatch to emit invalid syntax regex tests.

This can occur when a single argument is modified in a part of a patch.

For example: (to not add a diff in the commit message)

$ ./scripts/checkpatch.pl --git db023296
Unterminated \g... pattern in regex; <very long regex omitted>

And, the test does not work correctly when these arguments are all new as
the initial patch line addition "+" is used in the argument name.

Fix this by stripping the line continuations and any "+" from the list of
arguments.

checkpatch repeatedly uses a runtime minimum version check that validates
the minimum perl version required for a regex match by using a "$^V ge
5.10.0" runtime string match.

Only perform that minimum version test once and store the result to reduce
string matching time.

This reduces runtime execution time for patches or files with high line
counts.

There are also reasons to explicitly avoid using the actual mailing list

quoting before being substituted in the parse_email routine.

Do so.

IMO, we should discourage '---help---' for new help texts, even in cases
where it would be consistent with other help texts in the file. This
will help if we ever want to get rid of '---help---' in the future.

Also simplify the code to only check for exactly '---help---'. Since
commit c2264564 ("kconfig: warn of unhandled characters in Kconfig
commands"), '---help---' is a proper keyword and can only appear in that
form. Prior to that commit, '---help---' working was more of a syntactic
quirk.
