Aditya Srivastava da7355ab4e checkpatch: add fix option for ASSIGNMENT_CONTINUATIONS
Currently, checkpatch warns us if an assignment operator is placed at the
start of a line and not at the end of previous line.

E.g., running checkpatch on commit 8195b1396e ("hv_netvsc: fix
deadlock on hotplug") reports:

  CHECK: Assignment operator '=' should be on the previous line
  +	struct netvsc_device *nvdev
  +		= container_of(w, struct netvsc_device, subchan_work);

Provide a simple fix by appending assignment operator to the previous
line and removing from the current line, if both the lines are additions
(ie start with '+')

Linux kernel
============

There are several guides for kernel developers and users. These guides can
be rendered in a number of formats, like HTML and PDF. Please read
Documentation/admin-guide/README.rst first.

In order to build the documentation, use ``make htmldocs`` or
``make pdfdocs``.  The formatted documentation can also be read online at:

    https://www.kernel.org/doc/html/latest/

There are various text files in the Documentation/ subdirectory,
several of them using the Restructured Text markup notation.

Please read the Documentation/process/changes.rst file, as it contains the
requirements for building and running the kernel, and information about
the problems which may result by upgrading your kernel.
