Subject: [PATCH v2] checkpatch: Ignore ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_ enum values

Since commit 4104a20646 enum values like
ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_Asym_Pause_BIT are ignored. But there are other enums
like ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE_1000baseT_Full_BIT, which are not ignored
because of the not matching '1000baseT' substring.

Add regex to match all ETHTOOL_LINK_MODE enums.
