Subject: [PATCH v4] checkpatch: add fix option for LOGICAL_CONTINUATIONS

Currently, checkpatch warns if logical continuations are placed at the
start of a line and not at the end of previous line.

E.g., running checkpatch on commit 3485507fc272 ("staging:
bcm2835-camera: Reduce length of enum names") reports:

CHECK:LOGICAL_CONTINUATIONS: Logical continuations should be on the
previous line
+	if (!ret
+	    && camera_port ==

Provide a simple fix by adding logical operator at the end of previous
line and removing from current line, if both the lines are additions
(ie start with '+')

changes in v2: quote $operator at substitution

changes in v3: add a check for previous line ending with comment;
If so, insert $operator at the last non-comment, non-whitespace char of the previous line

changes in v4: improve the matching mechanism by matching line termination at comment or white space;
insert the operator before comments (if any) separated by a whitespace;
append the comment and its pre-whitespace after the inserted operator (if comment was present),
ie if no comment was present nothing will be inserted after the operator
