cover checkpatch: Add --strict macro argument tests

This is rather better than the first submission. I think this is acceptable and doesn't need to be RFC.

Joe Perches (2):
checkpatch: Add --strict test for macro argument reuse
checkpatch: Add --strict test for precedence challenged macro arguments

PATCH 1/2 checkpatch: Add --strict test for macro argument reuse

If a macro argument is used multiple times in the macro definition, the macro argument may have an unexpected side-effect.

Add a test (MACRO_ARG_REUSE) for that condition which is only emitted with command-line option --strict.

PATCH 2/2 checkpatch: Add --strict test for precedence challenged macro arguments

In reply to Joe Perches

Add a test for macro arguents that have a non-comma leading or trailing operator where the argument isn't parenthesized to avoid possible precedence issues.
