Subject: checkpatch: suspect code indent must stop at #else/#elif
X-Git-Tag: v2.6.28-rc1~467
X-Git-Url: http://pilppa.com/gitweb/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=f16fa28f7b3d95e989fc64c8480e44c1bcf4bac3;p=linux-2.6-omap-h63xx.git

checkpatch: suspect code indent must stop at #else/#elif

When we hit and #else or #elif we know we are meeting an alternative piece
of code.  All bets are off on indent if we did not see the open of the
control so stop checking.
