Subject: checkpatch: format strings should not have brackets in macros
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.32-rc1~429
X-Git-Url: http://review.tizen.org/git/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=ea71a0a019f913bdf506103bd90140d93a2b83f0;p=platform%2Fkernel%2Flinux-3.10.git

checkpatch: format strings should not have brackets in macros

We should not recommend braces for the following:

    #define pr_fmt(fmt)    "%s: " fmt, __func__

allow things with double quotes round them to avoid this check.
