Subject: checkpatch.pl: add union and struct to the exceptions list
From: Stefani Seibold <stefani@xxxxxxxxxxx>

Add the `struct' and `union' keywords to the exceptions list of the
checkpatch.pl script, to prevent error message "Macros with multiple
statements should be enclosed in a do - while loop".  Otherwise it is not
possible to build a struct or union with a macro.
