This doesn't trigger on the example I gave you.

$ cat def_type.c
#define foo struct bar

#define foo					\
	struct bar

#define foo /* baz */				\
	struct bar

#define foo /* baz */				\
						\
	struct /* baz */ bar
$

It seems for macros the $dstat variable needs to be tested.

Try this:

diff --git a/scripts/checkpatch.pl b/scripts/checkpatch.pl
index faea0ec..fc4df52 100755
--- a/scripts/checkpatch.pl
