Subject: checkpatch: fix false positive MISSING_BREAK warnings with --file
X-Git-Url: https://git.stricted.de/?a=commitdiff_plain;h=e81f239b4db2ad6c4b029ed92f0222601ce42abe;p=GitHub%2FLineageOS%2FG12%2Fandroid_kernel_amlogic_linux-4.9.git

checkpatch: fix false positive MISSING_BREAK warnings with --file

Using --file mode can give false positives with MISSING_BREAK
fall-through warnings on simple but long multiple consecutive case
statements.

Look for all lines before a case statement for a switch or a statement
when using --file mode.

Fix a misspelling of preceded while there.
