Subject: [PATCH v3] .gitignore: Ignore smatch generated files

The Smatch static checker creates some data files in the kernel root
directory.  Add them to the .gitignore file so that no one accidentally
commits them.

v3: Rewrote a more descriptive commit message and removed "change-id" junk
v2: Removed trinity stuff

New to development and looking for tasks to work on to get familiar with
code, I noticed smatch generates some files at the root.  Since this
tool seems frequent for newbies like myself I thought it would be worth
getting rid of the chance of accidentally committing these files.
