Bug fix: checkpatch.pl stops complaining about following pattern: """ do { //do somethins; } while (conditions); """
Two things need to be mentioned: 1) Before I casue this bug, checkpatch.pl will raise a wrong complain: """ ERROR: braces {} are necessary even for single statement blocks + for (i == 0; i < 0; ++i) + { + ; + } else """ In this patch, this wrong complain get fixed. 2) Becasue all(`if`, `while`, `for`) check have been done in this `if` block(Line: 2356), and this block contains following statement: """ Line: 2379 $suppress_ifbraces{$ln + $offset} = 1; """ So the block after this block may never run: """ Line: 2415 if (!defined $suppress_ifbraces{$linenr - 1} && $line =~ /\b(if|while|for|else)\b/ && $line !~ /\#\s*if/ && $line !~ /\#\s*else/) { """ But I think, maybe it's ok, becasue all check has been done by up block. I'm not sure, please give me some advice.
