Hi Joe Perches,

Would you fix checkpatch.pl about DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE?
Currently, checkpatch.pl guides to use DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE
as below.

WARNING: Use DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE for struct pci_device_id
#331: FILE: drivers/usb/host/ehci-pci.c:331:
+static const struct pci_device_id pci_ids [] = { {

However, Greg Kroah-Hartman mentioned that DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE
shouldn't be used anymore.

So, would you change checkpatch.pl in order to guide to use
struct pci_device_id instead of DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE?

For example,
WARNING: Use struct pci_device_id instead of DEFINE_PCI_DEVICE_TABLE

Thank you.

Best regards,
Jingoo Han
