Subject: [Bug report] Hit false positives bug with script/checkpatch.pl

Hi,
     I hit a false positives bug when run script/checkpatch.pl to my patch,
It reported  errors to following macro definition, but in fact the macro is
correct, I couldn't change that macro according to the error message output
by script/checkpatch.pl. because of this bug, my patch was rejected by some
guy's patchwork.

 ./scripts/checkpatch.pl netxen.patch

total: 2 errors, 0 warnings, 62 lines checked

netxen.patch has style problems, please review.

If any of these errors are false positives, please report
--

Please check and fix it.




Thanks,

---------------------the sample patch ------
From: Ethan Zhao <ethan.zhao@...cle.com>

netxen driver has implemented netxen_nic_get_ethtool_stats() interface,
but it doesn't collect stats.rxdropped in driver, so we will get
different rx_dropped statistic information while using ifconfig and ethtool.
this patch fills stats.rxdropped field with data from net core
with dev_get_stats() just as ixgbe driver did for some of its stats.

V2: only fix the stats.rxdropped field.

Tested with last netxen 4.0.82
Compiled with net-next branch 3.16-rc2
