I tested this version (COMPLEX_MACRO only) with . symbol over all .c and
.h files in the kernel (commit ce5c2d2c256a4) and the change fixes 230
false positives, see the list below in format $file:$lineno.
No new false negatives are introduced, so according to my test . is okay
here to have.
Please also note that the problem is quite old and it emerged earlier,
e.g. see http://permalink.gmane.org/gmane.linux.ports.arm.kernel/451646 etc.
