From: Joe Perches <joe@xxxxxxxxxxx> Subject: checkpatch: improve the SUSPECT_CODE_INDENT test The current SUSPECT_CODE_INDENT test does not recognize several defective code style defects where code following a logical test is inappropriately indented. Before this patch, for code like: if (foo) bar(); checkpatch would not emit a warning. Improve the test to warn when code after a logical test has the same indentation as the logical test. Perform the same indentation test for "else" blocks too.
