Subject: [PATCH] checkpatch: Improve tests for multiple line function definitions

Add a block that identifies multiple line function definitions.

Save the function name into $context_function to improve the embedded
function name test.

Look for misplaced open brace on the function definition.
Emit an OPEN_BRACE error when the function definition is similar to

     void foo(int arg1,
              int arg2) {

Miscellanea:

o Remove the $realfile test in function declaration w/o named arguments test
o Comment the function declaration w/o named arguments test
