Hexadecimal values are current found in 2 parts.  A hex constant like
0x123456abcdef is found as 0 and then x123456abcdef and later coalesced.

Instead, reverse the order of the 2 searches in $Constant to find 0x
first, then 0 so that the entire hex constant is found all at once.

checkpatch already makes an exception to the 80-column rule for quoted
strings, and Documentation/CodingStyle recommends not splitting quoted
strings across lines, because it breaks the ability to grep for the
string.  Rather than just permitting this, actively warn about quoted
strings split across lines.

Test case:

void context(void)
{
	struct { unsigned magic; const char *strdata; } foo[] = {
		{ 42, "these strings"
		      "do not produce warnings" },
		{ 256, "though perhaps"
		       "they should" },
	};
	pr_err("this string"
	       " should produce a warning\n");
	pr_err("this multi-line string\n"
	       "should not produce a warning\n");
	asm ("this asm\n\t"
	     "should not produce a warning");
}

Results of checkpatch on that test case:

WARNING: quoted string split across lines
+	       " should produce a warning\n");

Fix up type and cast spacing checks such that all occurences on a line are
examined and reported.  For example the line below has a valid cast and a
bad type, but currently we check the cast first which is good and stop:

    u16* bar = (u16 *)baz;

We will also only report one of the errors in this example:

    u16* bar = (u16*)bad;

Move to iterating across all casts and all types, reporting any failure.
