Subject: [PATCH v2] checkpatch: Fix regex for do without braces

The regular expression for detecting do without braces
also passes when checkpatch encounters the "double"
keyword. This causes wrong recalculation of $stat in
checkpatch which can cause false positives.

Fix the regex to avoid the above. Also update the comments
for the check.
