Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: warn on #defines ending in semicolon

Using a #define ending in a semicolon is poor style and can lead to
unexpected code paths being executed.

Warn on uses of these #define types:

	#define foo[(...)] bar;
	#define foo[(...)]	\
		bar;

Based on a patch from Borislav Petkov.
