[PATCH v4 2/3] checkpatch: Ignore <inttypes.h> format macros for userspace tools

Petr Vorel <[email protected]>
Newsgroups org.kernel.vger.linux-kernel
Message-ID <[email protected]>
Constants from <inttypes.h> are used only in userspace tools, they are
from ISO C99, let's don't report it:

    arch/mips/boot/tools/relocs.c:572: CHECK: Avoid CamelCase: <PRIx32>
    arch/s390/tools/relocs.c:52: CHECK: Avoid CamelCase: <PRIu64>
    tools/testing/selftests/mm/vm_util.c:244: CHECK: Avoid CamelCase: <SCNu64>

The same as in v3.
