Subject: checkpatch: ## is not a valid modifier
X-Git-Tag: v3.3-rc1~113^2~39
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=89a883530fe79939384a6c6ed893c719762c7c9c;p=profile%2Fivi%2Fkernel-adaptation-intel-automotive.git

checkpatch: ## is not a valid modifier

Inserting a # into the modifiers list will incorrectly add the null string
to the modifiers list, leading to an infinite loop.  As neither of these
is a valid modifier form simply ignore them.
