Many lines of code extend beyond the maximum line length. Some of these
are possibly justified by use type.
For instance:
structure definitions where comments are added per member like:
struct foo {
type member; /* some long description */
And lines that don't fit the typical logging message style
where a string constant is used like:
SOME_MACRO(args, "Some long string");
Categorize these long line types so that checkpatch can use a command-line
--ignore=<type> option to avoid emitting some long line warnings.
One of the existing checkpatch exclusions allowed kernel-doc argument
documentation to exceed 80 columns because old versions of kernel-doc
required single line documentation. The requirement was removed in 2009
so remove that exclusion.
Add documentation to make the test a bit clearer.

checkpatch uses various cues in its input patches and files to discover
the names of user-defined types and modifiers. It then uses that
information when processing expressions to discover potential style
issues.
Unfortunately, in rare cases, this means that checkpatch may give
different results if you run it on several input files in one execution,
or one by one!
The reason is that it may identify a type (or something that looks like a
type) in one file, and then carry this information over when processing a
different file.
For example, drivers/staging/media/bcm2048/radio-bcm2048.c contains this
line (in a macro):
size value;
and drivers/staging/media/davinci_vpfe/vpfe_video.c has this line:
while (size * *nbuffers > vpfe_dev->video_limit)
If checkpatch processes these 2 files in a single command like:
./scripts/checkpatch.pl -f $file1 $file2
the (spurious) "size" type detected in the first file will cause it to flag
the second file for improper use of the pointer dereference operator.
To fix this, store types and modifiers found in a file in separate arrays
from built-in ones, and reset the arrays of types and modifiers found in
files at the beginning of each new source file.

c90 section "6.7.2 Type Specifiers" says:
"type specifiers may occur in any order"
That means that:
short int is the same as int short
unsigned short int is the same as int unsigned short
etc...
checkpatch currently parses only a subset of these allowed types.
For instance: "unsigned short" and "signed short" are found by
checkpatch as a specific type, but none of the or "int short" or "int
signed short" variants are found.
Add another table for the "kernel style misordered" variants.
Add this misordered table to the findable types.
Warn when the misordered style is used.
This improves the "Missing a blank line after declarations" test as it
depends on the correct parsing of the $Declare variable which looks for
