- Remove the "MISSING_SPACE" check which checks for breaks at a space in
a string concatenation. Most of the time this makes sense, but we
occasionally need to break where there isn't a space, so having a hard
rule doesn't always work.
- Don't check the vendorcode directory for compliance to coreboot's
code format rules.

- Don't require a description of every config statement in the
Kconfig changes
- Don't complain about externs in .c files
- Don't complain about the use of the volatile keyword. The kernel
may not want it, but we definitely need it.
- Disable checks that seem to be broken.

Linux' newest checkpatch.pl flags comments like these:
/* This is a concise 2-line comment that explains what the code does in
* sufficient detail without wasting too much vertical space. */
do_stuff_that_needs_explaining();
Comments like these have been used in our code base for a long time and
I don't think we should disallow them now. Ending the comment on the
same line doesn't really hurt readability and wastes less screen real
estate (which in turn usually helps overall code comprehension).

Try to make checkpatch a little friendlier to the coreboot project.
This is the checkpatch .conf from the Chrome OS tree.
