Subject[PATCH v3] scripts: checkpatch: Check multiple blank lines when deleting code
Date
By matching only current line starting with '+', we miss the case
when deleting code makes consecutive blank lines appear: this patch
then makes it possible to detect this case by also matching current
line starting with ' ', which is an already existing blank line.

Signed-off-by: Alexandre Ghiti <alex@ghiti.fr>

Changes in v3 as suggested by Joe Perches:
- Do not try to fix this case
- Make this test separate from the insertion one so that warning
is more explicit

Changes in v2:
- Fix the --fix option
