    checkpatch: add some new alloc functions to various tests · e29a70f1
    Joe Perches authored Mar 07, 2019
    Many new generic allocation functions like the kvmalloc family have been
    added recently to the kernel.
    
    The allocation functions test now includes:
    
    o kvmalloc and variants
    o kstrdup_const
    o kmemdup_nul
    o dma_alloc_coherent
    o alloc_skb and variants
    
    Add a separate $allocFunctions variable to help make the allocation
    functions test a bit more readable.
    
    Miscellanea:
    
    o Use $allocFunctions in the unnecessary OOM message test and
      add exclude uses with __GFP_NOWARN
    o Use $allocFunctions in the unnecessary cast test
    o Add the kvmalloc family to the preferred sizeof alloc style
      foo = kvmalloc(sizeof(*foo), ...)
