When we want to confirm an export is directly after its definition we need
to allow for DEFINE_ style macros. Add these to the execeptions.
Refactor the exceptions.

We are missing 'simple' values which include square brackets. Refactor to

Within the type checker we have a number of common kernel types which must
be implemented as typedefs. Pull those out so that we can use the same
expressions to trigger exclusions.

We often see macros which define structure members, these are not complex
and necessarily do not have braces or brackets. For example:
#define _PLIST_HEAD_INIT(head) \
.prio_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).prio_list), \
.node_list = LIST_HEAD_INIT((head).node_list)

If we have sufficient context detect and handle do without braces ({).
Else these incorrectly trigger a trailing statements error for the

A do without braces '{' may trigger a false possible type 'do' and then
this may be interpreted as an external definition of foo():
do
foo();
while (bar);
Add do to the type exclusions. Fix up tests so we can check for them.

Firmware may be included in the kernel as .ihex files. These are

When the last hunk of a patch is short it will trigger errors from
checkpatch:
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//)
at /usr/local/bin/checkpatch.pl line 394.
Use of uninitialized value in concatenation (.) or string
at /usr/local/bin/checkpatch.pl line 397.
Use of uninitialized value in pattern match (m//)
Avoid touching beyond the last line. Reported by Julien Brunel.

We are currently only reporting syspect indents if the conditional is
modified but the indent missmatch could be generated by the body changing,
make sure we catch both. Also only report the first line of the body, and
more importantly make sure we report the raw copy of the line. Finally
report the indent levels to make it easier to understand what is wrong.
