Config EXPERIMENTAL has been removed from kernel in 2013 (see commit
3d374d09: "final removal of CONFIG_EXPERIMENTAL"), there is no any
reason to do these checks now.

Miscellanea:

 - Correct the misuse of type string PRINTF_0xDECIMAL type strings are
   supposed to be uppercase only. Fix this and add tr/[a-z]/[A-Z] to the
   type check in case I forget this again sometime in the future.

 - Improve the mechanism to find these defects so all 3 current checks

Lines containing "} else {" should not be detected as unbalanced braces.
But the second check can be reduced to ".+else\s*{" and it therefore
never checked if the beginning of a line contains any other character
(like the relevant "}").  This check would also return true for "} else
{" and create warnings like

    CHECK: Unbalanced braces around else statement
    #391: FILE: ./net/batman-adv/tvlv.c:391:
    +   } else {

The check can be changed to check the whole line for the missing "}" to
avoid this false positive.

The function calls with octal permissions commonly span multiple lines.
The current test is line oriented and fails to find some matches.

Make the test use the $stat variable instead of the $line variable to span
multiple lines.

Also add a few functions to the known functions with permissions list.

Move the SYMBOLIC_PERMS test to a separate section to find all the S_<FOO>
permissions in any form not just those that have specific function names.

This can now find and fix permissions uses like:

: So we should rather go the other way: convert existing bad symbolic

: The symbolic names are good for the *other* bits (ie sticky bit, and the

Signoff was not checked if the filename is '-', indicating reading the
patch from stdin.  Commands such as the below would not warn about a
missing signoff, because the patch filename is '-'.  This change allows
checkpatch to warn about a missing signoff, even if the input filename
is '-', but only if the patch has a commit message.

  git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl -

A more common use of checkpatch with stdin is for piping git diff
through checkpatch.  The diff output would not contain a commit message,
and therefore it would not contain a signoff line.  For this common use
case, a warning should not be printed about the missing signoff.  With
this change we will only warn about a missing signoff if the input
contains a commit message.

  git diff | scripts/checkpatch.pl -

Before this patch, a workaround for the first command was to refer to
stdin by a name other than '-'.  The workaround is not an elegant
solution, because elsewhere checkpatch uses the fact that filename
equals '-', such as in setting '$vname' to 'Your patch' for stdin.  The
command below would report "/dev/stdin has style problems" instead of
"Your patch has style problems."

  git show --pretty=email | scripts/checkpatch.pl /dev/stdin

The __pmem address space was meant to annotate codepaths that touch
persistent memory and need to coordinate a call to wmb_pmem().  Now that
wmb_pmem() is gone, there is little need to keep this annotation.

Some lines in a commit log appear to be commit SHA1 ids like:

  ERROR: Please use git commit description style 'commit <12+ chars of sha1> ("<title line>")' - ie: 'commit 0123456789ab ("commit description")'

Reduce the false positives.

The --git <commit-count> shortcut can be confused by a tag with a dash
like v4.4-rc1.

Improve the test to verify the <commit-count> expression ends with a
dash followed by a numeric value.

Improve the git log result to verify the "<sha1> <subject>" output
as well.
