Subject[PATCH v2] checkpatch: improve email parsing
Date
checkpatch doesn't report warnings for many common mistakes
in emails. Some of which are trailing commas and incorrect
use of email comments.

At the same time several false positives are reported due to
incorrect handling of mail comments. The most common of which
is due to the pattern:

<stable@vger.kernel.org> # X.X

Improve email parsing mechanism in checkpatch.

What is added:

- Support for multiple name/address comments.
- Improved handling of quoted names.
- Sanitize improperly formatted comments.
- Sanitize trailing semicolon or dot after email.
