Subject[PATCH] checkpatch: avoid warning about Possible repeated word: 'Google'
Date
syzbot stack traces often come with the following line:

Hardware name: Google Google Compute Engine/Google Compute Engine...

This generates the repeated word warning from checkpatch.
It hit 49 times in the last 6 months in networking
(false-positive rate of 0.34%). Mute the warning for "Google",
there's no other word which comes close to being this clear
cut false-positive in our traffic.
