We should not add compiler extensions, it is not our job. We are not a
selfcontained project as kernel is so we should not introduce things
like this.
If we need to add some abstraction for this in the future to support
compilers doing these things differently then we will do that the same
way we dealt with the depricated attribute.
Added --terse and --mailback options to the make stylecheck target. It
also does continue even if it enounters a possible error.
We decided on two exceptions from the linux kernel coding standard:
- Empty wait while loops may end with ; on the same line.
- All blocks after while, if, for have to be in brackets even if they
only contain one statement. Otherwise it is easy to introduce an
error.
Checkpatch needs to be adapted to reflect those changes.
This commit add an extra field to the _usbd_device, that allows to
keep track of the number of USB strings which allows simplify
boundaries checking code in usb_standard_get_descriptor.
This commit also changes the index base for strings in
usb_standard_get_descriptor which allows to get rid of necessity to
have a dummy one-character string in a strings array.
