Subject: [PATCH 0/3] checkpatch tweaks

here are 3 minor tweaks to checkpatch
- skip reporting of a SPACING test, based on filename exclusion.
  *.lds.h are linker scripts, some rules don't apply
- exclude extern-C warning for symbol patterns common to vmlinux.lds.h
  (_start|_stop|_end) currently, pls tweak as fitting.
- subdue warning on BUG_ON if BUG_ON is mentioned in commit log

Jim Cromie (3):
  checkpatch: skip spacing tests on linker scripts
  checkpatch: tweak extern in C warning
  checkpatch: suppress BUG_ON warn when it is named in commitmsg
