While there are valid reasons to use __packed, often the answer is that you should be doing something else here instead. This reintroduces the changes of f503cc49a570 (Add warning for new __packed additions) Signed-off-by: Heinrich Schuchardt <xypron.glpk@gmx.de>
Checkpatch produces the following warning:
Unescaped left brace in regex is deprecated here
(and will be fatal in Perl 5.30), passed through in regex;
marked by <-- HERE in m/^(\+.*(?:do|\))){ <-- HERE /
at scripts/checkpatch.pl line 3348.
The curent checkpatch of the Linux kernel corrects this
bug and many others.
It provides improved colored output.
So replace checkpatch by the current Linux version.
Add an empty file scripts/const_structs.checkpatch.
We can later fill it according to our needs.

checkpatch: remove unnecessary + after {8,8}
There's a useless "+" use that needs to be removed as perl 5.20 emits a
"Useless use of greediness modifier '+'" message each time it's hit.

Update to v3.14-rc4's version of checkpatch.pl. In doing so we drop the changes to top_of_kernel_tree() as we pass in --no-tree and drop our changes about MAINTAINERS as that's for reporting checkpatch.pl problems itself (and upstream has said they'll reword this section to be clearer).
